[Rivet] make-plots - possibility to have LogY also for ratio plots

[Andy Buckley]

Thanks for this Antonin; the 2.6.x make-plots code has evolved a bit, but I've merged in the equivalent of this patch. It'll be in the next release.

Unfortunately manpower is particualrly short on the plotting tools and so I can't promise anything concrete -- any chance that you could take a look and propose a patch? (I don't remember how much common functionality there is between the MainPlot and RatioPlot classes, but I think both use a YAxis drawing object, so maybe we just need to provide a config flag to activate the log mode...)
