#824 Jython getDataSet command with named parameters, fixLayout command

[Jeremy Faden]

There are things we often do after the getDataSet command is called, such as trimming to a specific range. The getDataSet should have a Jython wrapper which accepts trim=True to mean the data should be trimmed to the timerange. Also, there should be an option to sort the data in time.

getDataSets should also be updated.

A setLayout command is being added at the same time.

Specifying trim=tr will implicitly specify the timerange to load as well.

I've also thought it might be nice to constrain the units (like you can with the IDL/Matlab/Python reader), where it will try to convert the data to a specified unit. This makes the code more legible, and future-proofs a script.

Similarly, the data scheme could be constrained. For example, sometimes a server will return data in the form X->Y and sometimes it is a bundle T->[X,Y]. If you don't know the form the data will come in, it would be nice to specify the expected schema. Of course there is not really a good way to identify schemas, just org.das2.qdataset.examples.Schemes.
