Re: Modified Akima interpolation

It seems that the modification only affects the weighing of slopes at the
nodes between two flat regions. Adding a new parameter to the existing
constructor with a backwards-compatible default value may be better than
creating a whole new class.

Option 1: original=True
Option 2: modified=False

It would certainly be nice to have both versions available in scipy.
