With development of analytical IGT (#299), it can be used in all cases, while in many cases it outperforms the default LDR (with point dipoles). Hence, we may set is as the default formulation.

However, it requires a lot of testing and changes to example simulations, tutorials, etc. In some sense it will break backward compatibility and wreak havoc in tests/2exec. So this should probably be done before the release, not to interfere with testing of other features.

This is especially important for rectangular dipoles, since using the default formulation (point dipoles) there is very far from optimal (for most practical cases).
