   Thanks, move the declarations to taoimpl.h also and do it in the barry/tao-fixes-for-petsc4py branch. Just put Tao in front of them.

   We should eventually clean this stuff up and merge into VecGetSubVector() and MatGetSubMatrix() and unify usage in all of PETSc but will require some thought and care so I have added an issue https://bitbucket.org/petsc/petsc/issue/58/cleanup-taovecmatgetsubvec-and-unify-into instead of doing it rapidly and poorly now.

   It is generally useful stuff and after cleanup should be used by SNESVI also.
