RWTY post: New vignette for diagnosing MCMC convergence and lack thereof

This was requested by a couple of reviewers on the forthcoming RWTY app note.  It's something we had discussed doing anyway, but it's good that they forced us to sit down and do it because it's super helpful.  Basically it's a graphical rundown of two different data sets and what you can learn from the absolute legion of plots RWTY produces.  This is very much a first draft, but it's all there.  My hands are aching for typing; it was 5000 words' worth of yammering within the course of about eight hours.

It's also available in the newest version of RWTY on github by using browseVignettes("rwty")
