SWW aren't using single precision anymore?

Description

Joaquim Luis pointed this out on Sourceforge on 14th November 2007.

We used to create all variables in SWW as single precision by setting self.precision = Float32. However, it seems that the new method store_header() is using a variable named 'precision' which isn't defined in the method and as such must come from the context.

We need to check and test that sww files are using single precision.

Yes, thanks Joaquim Luis for pointing this out and Ole for doing the initial investigation. I've fixed this for sww files produced during evolve. sww's converted from boundaries are still Float, not Float32.

This was done in changeset:4862 Jane will test that the Cairns example outputs an sww file of the right size.

Checked Cairns demo - sww files are now more sensible size (around 400 Mb)
