UCARatings code now available. - Chess Tournament Director

I have added code to the CVS database for rating chess tournaments. This is code that may end up being part of the chesstd program.

Currently it calculates the ratings based on a method that was used last year to calculate ratings for the Utah Elementary Schoolastic Championship. There is also code for calculating ratings based on the USFC method as can be found on the USCF web site.

The code can be found in the ratings module in the CVS database.
