[ADOL-C] support for operator overloading for pdouble

A pdouble in ADOLC is like a dynamic parmaeter in CppAD see new_dynamic on
https://coin-or.github.io/CppAD/doc/new_dynamic.htm

I  extended  CppAD to allow for operations that  only involve dynamic parameters; see the heading 
08-04 on
https://coin-or.github.io/CppAD/doc/whats_new_18.htm

This was done by creating a separate and much simpler tape for the dynamic parameter operations; see 
the variables
dyn_par_is_, dyn_par_op_, and dyn_par_op_ in the file
https://github.com/coin-or/CppAD/blob/master/cppad/local/recorder.hpp
