Summary: Add Greeks to Binomial Vanilla Engine

Initial Comment:
delta, gamma, theta, vega, rho, etc.  ought to be added 
to the binomial vanilla engine.   many would consider 
this "core" functionality of any serious library.  if i can 
find the time, i will look into it myself as Luigi and others 
have suggested.  phil k. (wr...@ya...)

I have added Delta, Gamma and Theta to the latest release (0.8), as they
can be derived directly from the binomial tree. Other greeks (primarily
Rho, Vega) can only really be derived by running the calculation twice for
slightly different rates/volatilities, but this is trivial to do.
