Should take advantage of the new output structure, not be an analysis (yuk!).
Many of these issues were addressed by #1449, but it is still an Analysis.
Post 4.0 we should put the reaction calculation and Output as part of Joint
and simply use a reporter to get the values out.
Looking back on the logic flow within the JointReactionAnalysis, I realize it's outdated and doesn't utilize the convenient interfaces to get Mobilizers' reaction forces. Back then, the xml interface and implementation was messy because of the old style properties and because simbody's interface only reported all mobilizer reaction forces and moments at once. Now, both properties are easier and mobilizer interfaces to reactions are much better, allowing you to ask a mobilizer for just it's reaction force, and in the reference frame you chose. Most of the old logic and in the JointReactionAnalysis isn't necessary anymore.
