octave_support.h missing in 3.2.1 release tarball at numpi.dm.unipi.it #28

Hi, not quite an issue concerning this repo, but: The file octave_support.h is missing in the other official source for release tarballs, linked from the Uni of Pisa under https://numpi.dm.unipi.it/_media/software/mpsolve/mpsolve-3.2.1.tar.bz2. This breaks compilation of the octave bindings. The upstream version of the file works as expected.

Other silent differences that don't break compilation: some examples (not sure if that's intended; probably not, as other examples are included) and some test polynomials (probably intended, as those are the huge ones).

Concerning the examples, not all are distributed because some of those are in an unfinished state / not particularly useful. They are still in the repo for historical reasons.

I don't know why octave_support.h is missing in the tarball; I checked the tarball generated locally by make dist and it contains that file. In any case, I will probably just make a minor release and remove the octave module altogether, as it is in an abandoned state, and superseded by the MATLAB interface which now just works under Octave as well.

Sounds good. In this case, I'll remove the octave bindings from the Arch Linux build, too. Thanks for the investigation!
