Adding norm parameter to smooth, and allowing for smoothing in the decode1d and 2d functions

[dhruvm9]

1. The Gaussian window used in smooth can either be normalized (norm=True), or not (norm=False).
2. decode1d and decode2d now take the arguments of smooth as optional arguments, which allow for smoothing of the group before decoding. The default values of the call for smooth do no smoothing.

You need to write the test for it in the file tests/test_decoding.py

[gviejo]

Norm should be True by default.

[gviejo]

Change to True

[gviejo]

You should explain more here what it does. When computing a spike count, it smooth it and preserves the spike count in the 0 bin.
