New MINOR release 00.31.00

Changes since 00.30.00:

Features:
- Using C++14 compiler flags (needed for some lambda expressions)
- New FILL_VIRTUAL_FUNCTION_TEMPLATE_VTABLE_STANDALONE macro which works like FILL_VIRTUAL_FUNCTION_TEMPLATE_VTABLE but does not require the DEFINE_VIRTUAL_FUNCTION_TEMPLATE_VTABLE_FILLER
- Introduced DataType class to provide runtime information about the used implementation data type.
- Added callForType() function which allows to "convert" from a runtime type_info to a compile-time type (available for std::type_info and ChimeraTK::DataType)
- Added SharedDummyBackend
- Added access mode flags to Device::getTwoDRegisterAccessor. Now raw 2D accessors can be created.
- Added setAsCoocked() and getAsCoocked() to abstractor accessors.
- New macros DECLARE_TEMPLATE_FOR_CHIMERATK_USER_TYPES and INSTANTIATE_TEMPLATE_FOR_CHIMERATK_USER_TYPES to speed up compilation by providing instances of template classes already in the library.
- Added rawDataType() (and currently unused transportLayerDataType()) to the RegisterInfo class.
- Data members of RegisterInfoMap are now const, so they cannot be modified after creation of the object.
- The Linux-specific PCIe backend now is optional in the compilation. DeviceAccess now also compliles on MacOS.

Bug fixes:
- Raw transfer type now set correctly for numerically addressed backends.
- ScalarRegisterAccessor also works for strings.
- Fixed register catalogue entry for multiplexed 2D registers
