[Users] making outScalar_style steerable

[Erik Schnetter]

Luca

This parameter determines also the file name that is used to output
the data. When you steer the parameter, IOBasic would have to create
the new file. If you steer it back, it probably should append to the
existing, old file. It would probably also need to indicate that the
output has been distributed over several files, so that people are not
surprised by "missing" data.

I could be convinced to make it steerable upon recovery, but making it
generally steerable seems to create a lot of complications. When would
this feature be convenient for you?
