Changes

FSF Copyright Validation configuration: Blacklisted the PDF user manual.  This allows the checking of relax tags to pass.

Release checklist document: Describe the relax fork of latex2html.
API manual: No longer raise errors when parsing the pystarlib docstrings.
Release checklist document: Minor improvements to match the practical aspects of the release.
User manual: Proper abbreviation of the "Quarterly Reviews of Biophysics" journal name.
Test suite: New system test to catch the failure of reading newer Bruker DC NOE data files. The system test is Bruker.test_bug_15_NOE_read_fail and it catches bug #15 (https://sourceforge.net/p/nmr-relax/tickets/15/). The test uses truncated data from Stefano Ciurli as attached to the bug report.
Bruker DC: Silence the warnings about spin names already existing. The user does not need to see such warnings.
Travis CI config: Explicitly set 'trusty' as the distribution name for the default images. In the support request titled "Failure of GUI testing via xvfb" (https://support.travis-ci.com/hc/en-us/requests/7654), the Travis CI support staff suggested that we explicitly set 'dist: trusty'.
Bruker DC: A different way to silence the warnings about spin names already existing. The previous attempt at setting the force flag to True was causing failures in a number of system tests. Therefore a new flag 'warn_flag' has been added to pipe_control.mol_res_spin.name_spin() to allow warnings to be explicitly silenced.
Travis CI config: Use Xenial for running all tests on Linux and Python 2.7. This is from the support request titled "Failure of GUI testing via xvfb" (https://support.travis-ci.com/hc/en-us/requests/7654).
Travis CI config: Manual support for old SciPy versions on Python 2.7. SciPy 1.3.0 now requires Python >= 3.5. Therefore the OLD_MATPLOTLIB variable has been renamed to OLD_PY2_PACKAGES and, when set, is now used to install old matplotlib and scipy versions when using Python 2.7.
Travis CI config: Deactivate the Mac OS X updates to avoid timeouts. The 'brew update' and 'brew upgrade python3' take up half of the build time for the Mac OS X target. This large amount of time sometimes causes this build to hit the Travis CI time limits.
