Bugfixes

Typo fix for text in the model-free GUI auto-analysis. The maximum iterations for the protocol was misspelled in the GUI. This was spotted by Hessam Nasrollah.
Fix for one of the frame order system tests when using the Mac OS X application binary. The problem was that the 'shared_data' directory could not be found as it was not included in the test_suite package __all__ list.
Fix for bug #21754 (https://gna.org/bugs/?21754). This is the failure of the grace.view user function on MS Windows in opening a file in qtgrace when the path includes spaces, as reported by Mengjun Xue (mengjun dott xue att mailbox dott tu-berlin dott de). The fix was to run the program with the file name in double quotes.
Fix for bug #21763 (https://gna.org/bugs/?21763). This is the problem of the chi2 value not being visible in the parameter list of the grace.write and value.write user functions in the GUI. The problem was that when asking for the parameter name list, the minimisation parameters were not being asked for.
