Update requirements documentation for Cactus
Issue #1738
resolved
The Cactus User Guide has a section "Required software" which lists the software needed for Cactus. I think this should list the various language versions which are needed. For example, we could say (if this is the case) that Cactus requires C99 and C++98 or later. The page probably also should be updated to replace SVN with Git.

The relevant section is at the beginning of https://bitbucket.org/cactuscode/cactus/src/master/doc/UsersGuide/Notes.tex and is on the web (though it might be out of date) at http://einsteintoolkit.org/documentation/UsersGuide/UsersGuidech5.html#x8-14000B1.

- Cactus requires C99 (since ET_2012_11 http://einsteintoolkit.org/about/releases/ET_2012_11_announcement.php)
- Cactus requires a C++ compiler (since it's main() is in a C++ file)
- Cactus (flesh and Cactus* arrangements other than tests, examples and the Fortran thorn) do not require any Fortran compiler
- Einstein Toolkit requires Fortran 2003 (since LoopControl does #1546)
- Carpet requires a Fortran 90 compiler
- Carpet requires a C++98 compiler and STL and can use a C++11 compiler
