Proper treatment of beam remnants and their pT spectra

Description

There was a rudimentary support for this in WHIZARD 1, e.g. for ISR by Tim Barklow, but no general solution. This should be done in WHIZARD 2. Also, the counter (at least) for beam remnants has to switched on again.

The code has been there for a long time now, but never tested. Activating it for ISR, I discovered that the splitting formula (momentum transfer bound) fails in double precision due to me / sqrts being too small. It is necessary to use a Taylor expansion here. Otherwise, it should be ok.
