This PR contains a number of suggestions that are up for discussion! There is a tradeoff for compatibility with old systems in moving to larger default array sizes.
Increase a number of array size defaults, since modern systems have considerably more memory on average than they used to.
[Edit: I took this change out, so radiative compton corrections are off by default] Enable radiative compton corrections in all applications. This one is up for debate! From what I understand it requires increasing the stack size, which I have done only for egs_chamber so far in this PR. Should I also increase the stack size for all applications, and do we want this on by default?
Decrease EPSEMFP and EPSGMFP, fixing issue Seg fault with BEAM shared library in DOSXYZnrc with modern gcc versions #9.
These changes are mainly quality-of-life improvements for users who typically had to make the adjustments manually. Thanks to @ojalaj for providing a list of suggestions.
