Write out the right hand side status of the matrix in format
.ic = V(node_xx)
This may be possible at the end of a simulation or after a 'stop'
of the simulation, which may be resumed again afterwars. This
status may be used to start another simulation with these
parameters by inluding into the netlist.

When standard iteration, gmin stepping and source stepping fail,
try a transient simulation (like tran with uic option) to
determine the op. Implemented for AC and Tran simulation.
We now scan for max of Ic, Ib, power, taking into
account the max allowed temperature, using the thermal
resistance rth0 model parameter between juntion and ambient.
Two user options are there: If rth0 is given, we calculate
a derating of the max power allowed.
Without a constant max power according to model param pow_max
is assumed.
The new model parameters for the bipolar model are:
pow_max, ic_max, ib_max, te_max, and rth0, in addition
to the already existing vbe_max, vbc_max, adn vce_max.
Limit output to four digits
Add power and temperature limits.
Derating with self-heating, or with fixed temperature,
or no derating at all, selectable by setting model parameters.
Example file: SOA plotted as frame, with diode current.
Parameters id_max, pd_max and te_max have been added
for current, power, and temperature to the already existing
fv_max and bv_max (max forward and backward volteges).
Replace the type of all boolean variables around the ABI by NG_BOOL.
NG_BOOL is typedefed to _Bool, when compiling shared ngspice. When
sharedspice.h is use externally NG_BOOL is typdefed to bool
This isn't currently used but can be used in various places to
automatically provide the internal API version that is used.
Normally developers doesn't want to break the API by introducing a
version bump as this means the new library isn't backward compatible
any more.
E.g. the API version can be used to enhance the name of the library,
quite often libraries with an API version 0 don't add this version to
library name (like ngspice is doing this too right now).
