BUG: Remove public MetaDataObject constructors.

MetaDataObject uses the ::New() method and reference counting inherited from
LightObject -- these constructors cannot be used without improper memory
management.

Also remove the const type specializations of the Print macros -- these could
not be used in practice because the value could not get set.

DOC: The use of VersorTransformOptimizerv4 is deprecated.

The use of this optimizer can be replaced by the
RegularStepGradientDescentOptimizerv4 that can generate more precise
results on versor transform optimization.

COMP: Fix the writing of .idx files

The previous change to the print function broke the wrapping build.
This should fix the writing of the .idx files.

Fixed also imports of stringIO, we can even do it without six, see:
http://python3porting.com/stdlib.html

Use also from __future__ import unicode_literals, so that StrinIO
works on both Python 2 and 3

Fix also a problem in igenerator.py with the .h file creation, the \n
was misplaced.
