Switch to using the Port algorithm per default
Actually this only changes the order of entries in the dropbox, the default is set in mkin::mkinfit().

The drop down box "method.modFit" makes it possible to choose between the optimisation
-algorithms "Marq" (the default Levenberg-Marquardt implementation from the R package

-"SANN" (the simulated annealing method - robust but inefficient and without a

Finally, the maximum number of iterations for the optimisation can be adapted using the
"maxit.modFit" field.
