At Ian Hawke's request, make the setting of an excision mask specifyable
on a per-horizon basis:
The old parameter set_mask is now replaced by two new parameters:
set_mask_for_all_horizons
set_mask_for_individual_horizon[n]
For most purposes, you can just change set_mask to
set_mask_for_all_horizons in your parameter files. If you
really want to control the setting of the mask on a per-horizon basis,
read section 4.6 in the thorn guide to find out how the new parameters
work.
