Sometimes you can end up with two measurements for the same depth
(or sample name) and demagnetization level in the same file. It
would be useful to have a feature whereby these could be combined --
either by taking the mean value or by discarding one measurement.

I've added an experimental method
mergeDuplicateMeasurements(Collection<Sample> samples)
to Suite, but haven't yet hooked it into the GUI or tested it
(AT ALL).

Both "merge measurements" and "merge samples" features now implemented
and documented. "Merge samples" turns out seldom to be needed in
practice -- I think PuffinPlot has got better at combining treatment
steps into samples during loading since this bug was created. But
considering the ever-increasing number of ways to edit a suite, there
are doubtless still ways to end up with duplicate samples.
