provide classes with default simple constructor #423

It would be nice for newcomers experimenting with the code to have a parameter-less (or very simple) constructor. So we can quickly create instances and see what the code does.

Candidates would be: encoders, SP, TP, ..

Example: for ScalarEncoder add class SimpleScalar() these classes would not definitely aim at being universal, but provide a quick "just works" feeling.

AFAIK, the SP and TP already have default values for their parameters.

TM also has default parameters. The SP also has defaults, but some of them are not the optimal values I would choose. So I'm leaving this open. But no need to do anything for the obsolete TP.
