* Add numpydoc docstrings (to most functions)
* Converted hackish test suites to hackish `unittest.TestCase`s.
  Still ugly, but now `nosetests` finds them.
  They should really use .assertAlmostEqual and company...
* Added neccessary function definitions to doc/conf.py for the
  'math' sections of fft's docstrings.
