make abs() work on multivectors #42

I like the idea, but I'm actually not sure what the expected result would be. Most obviously it should just call the .norm() function on multivectors. But the problem is that norm can also be negative, or a study number. Whereas with abs I would expect to get a positive real number. So now I'm doubting if this could lead to unintuitive code. Any thoughts?
