Title: feature-selection: add contin support

This set of patches culminates with the addition of contin support to feature selection.

Hey Nil, If you have time, can you review the code in opencog/comboreduct/table/table.h, that adds the contin support for mutual information? (circa lines 644 to 685) The feature_selectionUTest exercises this code. In particular:

-- KLD comes back negative; is this right?
-- I thought KLD would be maxed out at 1.0, but it goes beyond that. (for the unit test, the KLD values are typically -0.9 to -1.1 )
