Title: DOC describe LBFGS-B logging behavior, including iterate.dat file

I found out that `optimize.fmin_l_bfgs_b` writes logging info to a file called `iterate.dat` and wished the docstring would have warned me about that, so I updated the docstring.

Please think about this "feature" before accepting the patch; I don't know any Fortran, but I'd happily learn as much as I need to tear out this behavior. Having these files strewn over my directories is irritating, but there's currently no way to get detailed logging info without generating them.
