[petsc-dev] Matlab implementation of PC

[Barry Smith]

  I've added the PetscPC object to the Matlab interface as well as PetscKSP.GetPC() to access it.

  Also added PetscOptionsSetValue() and PetscOptionsClearValue() to the Matlab interface to allow easily changing options interactively between solver runs without using PetscInitialize() again.

  For the Matlab interface I have not tried to write all the PetscXXXSetYYY() and PetscXXXYYYSetZZZ() interfaces manual. For example KSPGMRESSetRestart() etc. It would be nice to generate them all automatically :-) but then we have some cumbersome scripts to generate them (ugg) or someone (hint hint) could spend a couple hours typing them in (only bad in that they would to be kept in sync with the C interfaces).
