[BLAST_ANAWARE] changes to ANALDIR & DATADIR

Hello,
I would like to propose to split $ANALDIR and $DATADIR

currently they point to the same disk (net/data/4) which is not a good
idea. At this rate by the end of the year we will surely need one full
spud disk to store crunched data alone. Which means less and less raw
data on DATADIR... it is a vicious cycle. So I propose the following

_ Use /net/data/4 for crunched and montecarlo data only

  We should makes organize montecarlo(a) files per event generator such
  as /net/data/4/Analysis/blastmc/eep (ep, epi+..). In this way you do
  need to change $ANALDIR

_ Use /net/data/5

  with /net/data/6 for the mirror copy. The mirror copy is kept until all
  tape backups are done. When /net/data/5 is full, data is moved and linked
  to the next data disk (currently we use 3)

  In this way $DATADIR should now point to /net/data/5/Daq/data

_ You are kindly urged to move *ALL* of your data from the spuds to the
  buds.

  **All of the /net/data/?/scratch directories should disappear**

Again the spuds should really be used primarily for the raw data. All
students now have 100 Gb of space elsewhere. Also note that we need at
least one empty disk should we ever need to dump data back on from tape.
