MAX_MD_DIMS_POSSIBLE

#define MAX_MD_DIMS_POSSIBLE   11

The is the collection of the constants and enums, which are used in Multidimensional Workspace, usually in more then one file.

Collected here to simplify references and modifications, the dimensionsID will be replaced by proper class

We define maximal number of dimensionsMAX_MD_DIMS_POSSIBLE which a MD dataset can have because

• a) every additional dimension will be expensive to process
• b) minimal size of the visualisation dataset is 2^MAX_NDIMS_POSSIBLE, so this number has to be reasonable and any bigger number is probably because of an error;
• c) if we need to increase the number of dimensions, it can be easy done here

MAX_REASONABLE_BIN_NUMBER

#define MAX_REASONABLE_BIN_NUMBER   1000000

we are not going to rebin data on more than some number of bins.

Lets set this constant as the limit for checks (in case of wrong word padding or -int casted to unsigned int)
