Gael Guennebaud 64fcfd314f Implement scalar multiples and division by a scalar as a binary-expression with a constant expression. ...

This slightly complexifies the type of the expressions and implies that we now have to distinguish between scalar*expr and expr*scalar to catch scalar-multiple expression (e.g., see BlasUtil.h), but this brings several advantages:
- it makes it clear on each side the scalar is applied,
- it clearly reflects that we are dealing with a binary-expression,
- the complexity of the type is hidden through macros defined at the end of Macros.h,
- distinguishing between "scalar op expr" and "expr op scalar" is important to support non commutative fields (like quaternions)
- "scalar op expr" is now fully equivalent to "ConstantExpr(scalar) op expr"
- scalar_multiple_op, scalar_quotient1_op and scalar_quotient2_op are not used anymore in officially supported modules (still used in Tensor)
