Numerical noise in shower output

Description

The unit test parton_shower_1 fails on Jenkins because the output of nagfor and gfortran differ. (The quad mode is also different.) There are too many almost-zero numbers, so use pacify?

This is of course not a new issue, but it breaks any functional tests.

It's not a disaster, we just didn't check the shower output at all for numerical stability. (Regarding the 2.2 tests, we may use just a summary, e.g., the number of particles.) Anyway, I don't want to delve into that code too deeply, but maybe there is a simple solution. Let's see ...

Should be fixed in r5333. I took the opportunity of making the ascii and debug event formats somewhat more useful.
