[major, refs #200] major change for the magnitude estimation from GUI

restitution of waveform data has been moved to dataprocessing; the routines have been cleaned up and work in changed order now:
new function restitute_data is a wrapper function in order to restitute seismic data with the most popular kinds of station metadata
