config: introduce set_nfactor() and use it to call set_algorithm_nfactor(). Had two bugs: 1. Will not compile due to unknown algorithm_t size. 2. nfactor is set to 0 (bad calling, fix later). So squashed two commits: 1. algorithm: move algorithm_t definition to header. 2. config: if --nfactor is specified, properly set algorithm->nfactor. 11 years ago			`typedef struct _algorithm_t {`
core: use global algorithm structure instead of opt_nfactor. Also squashed: config: add log messages to set_algo() and set_nfactor(). algorithm: use set_algorithm_nfactor() when setting default nfactor in set_algorithm(). Otherwise algorithm->n defaults to 0. P.S. Did I already mention how this could have been C++?.. 11 years ago			`char name[20]; /* Human-readable identifier */`

config: add `--algorithm` option and documentation. Doc in `doc/configuration.md` (has to be started sometime, no?). Configuration function has to be lamely-named set_algo(), because set_algorithm() is already declared in algorithm.h (prevent namespace conflict). algorithm has to be added as global variable due to the way the callback is done (by CCAN/opt, which in itself is nice). This can be cleaned up significantly by (at least) introducing a global configuration struct, but there is no reason to do it now just for this - better a wholesale manana. 11 years ago			`void set_algorithm(algorithm_t* algo, const char* name);`
