• Removed the max_num_sites limit on the event based calculator

[Valerio Poggi (@klunk386)]

• Added an AvgSA intensity measure type and a GenericGmpeAvgSA which is
  able to use it

[Michele Simionato (@micheles)]

• Introduced the ability to launch subtasks from tasks
• Stored rupture information in classical calculations with few sites

[Chris Van Houtte (@cvanhoutte)]

• Adding conversion from geometric mean to larger horizontal component in
  bradley_2013.py

[Michele Simionato (@micheles)]

• Fixed a bug in applyToSources for the case of multiple sources
• Moved the prefiltering on the workers to save memory
• Exported the aggregated loss ratios in avg losses and agg losses
• Removed the variables quantile_loss_curves and mean_loss_curves: they
  were duplicating quantile_hazard_curves and mean_hazard_curves
• Only ruptures boundingbox-close to the site collection are stored

[Marco Pagani (@mmpagani)]

• Added cluster model to classical PSHA calculator

[Michele Simionato (@micheles)]

• Fixed a bug in scenario_damage from ShakeMap with noDamageLimit=0
• Avoided the MemoryError in the controller node by speeding up the saving
  of the information about the sources
• Turned utils/reduce_sm into a proper command
• Fixed a wrong coefficient in the ShakeMap amplification
• Fixed a bug in the hazard curves export (the filename did not contain
  the period of the IMT thus producing duplicated files)
• Parallelized the reading of the exposure

[Marco Pagani (@mmpagani)]

• Fixed the implementation on mutex ruptures

[Michele Simionato (@micheles)]

• Changed the aggregated loss curves exporter
• Added an experimental calculator ebrisk
• Changed the ordering of the events (akin to a change of seed in the
  asset correlation)

[Robin Gee (@rcgee)]

• Fixed bug in tusa_langer_2016.py BA08SE model - authors updated b2 coeff
• Fixed bug in tusa_langer_2016.py related to coeffs affecting Repi models

[Michele Simionato (@micheles)]

• Added a check to forbid to set ses_per_logic_tree_path = 0
• Added an API /extract/event_info/eidx
• Splitting the sources in classical calculators and not in event based
• Removed max_site_model_distance
• Extended the logic used in event_based_risk - read the hazard sites
  from the site model, not from the exposure - to all calculators
• In classical_bcr calculations with a CSV exposure the retrofitted field
  was not read. Now a missing retrofitted value is an error

OpenQuake Engine 3.3.1

[Michele Simionato (@micheles)]

• Fixed the GMF exporter to export the event IDs and not event indices

[Robin Gee (@rcgee)]

• Fixed bug in tusa_langer_2016.py related to coeffs affecting Repi models
