stat.c -- statistical operations

Qhull records many statistics. These functions and macros make it inexpensive to add a statistic.

As with Qhull's global variables, the statistics data structure is accessed by a macro, 'qhstat'. If qh_QHpointer is defined, the macro is 'qh_qhstat->', otherwise the macro is 'qh_qhstat.'. Statistics may be turned off in user.h. If so, all but the 'zz' statistics are ignored.
