Correlation matrix handling and Nataf correlation modification.

The Nataf model transforms correlated non-normal random variables into correlated standard-normal variables. When the marginal distributions are non-normal, the correlation matrix in standard-normal space (the modified correlation matrix Ro) differs from the physical-space correlation matrix R. This module provides the numerical procedure that finds Ro from R and the marginal distributions.
