Internal free parameters.

The actual continuation scheme in AUTO may use additional free parameters that are automatically added. The simplest example is the computation of periodic solutions and rotations, where AUTO automatically adds the period, if not specified. The computation of loci of folds, Hopf bifurcations, and period-doublings also requires additional internal continuation parameters. These will be automatically added, and their indices will be greater than 10.
