Switched absolute to relative additional radius

[nicogno]

Larger virtual cell radii are currently considered when an interaction force is computed. This PR suggests switching to a virtual radius that is relative to the actual cell radius. This might affect the demos where cell interaction is involved.

WIP: adapt all the tests

[vasvav]

I agree with the approach you proposed @nicogno. I'd be in favour however setting the 'additional_radius_scaling' parameter as an input argument to the function. It can be let to take a default value (i.e., 1.03 as you propose in your code changes) yet permit a user to tailor the value to their needs - instead of restricting it to a fixed parameter value, isn't it?

The force is a function so it would have to be a member variable together with some appropriate void Set[...](double val) and double Get[...](double val) functions. Optionally one could add this parameter to param.h. Either way, it would be nice if one could easily control these parameter via an interface that does not require rebuilding BDM. 👍

Changes look all good to me. Just wondering, have you checked if/how it affects the demos?
