[Users] ADMMass thorn

[Bruno Giacomazzo]

Hi,
	I was the one actually asking Ian if there was a reason for ADMMass not being in ET and if there were any alternatives in ET. I use it regularly for my simulations.

Cheers,
Bruno

This would probably mean that someone describes the algorithm in more detail, and shows some results of errors and convergence for a few examples (single black hole, neutron star, maybe comparing to what TwoPunctures say for initial conditions).

According to its README file, the thorn was written by Frank Loeffler and is GPL.  It has been contributed to by Frank, Luca and Erik.  It has a test suite but no documentation.
