[Rivet] histogramming in Rivet

Hi Hannes,

There used to be some general documentation for the AIDA interfaces
online: they were defined primarily for Java but everything translated
fairly obviously to C++. The include/LWH/AI*.h files in Rivet are
probably the most direct interface guide, e.g.
https://rivet.hepforge.org/trac/browser/include/LWH?rev=dd32ed16d3cb15c563bc4a375c9ebca211c03352

The YODA histogramming in Rivet 2 has a much more comprehensive
documentation (at http://yoda.hepforge.org ), as well as a much nicer
programming interface, but you're probably already aware of that
already. Still, we encourage migration to this -- for "non-production"
use the beta releases are in good shape, the only blocker to the stable
release is fixing a few remaining analyses.

Andy
