Fixed. fft5d has been doing monkey business by reimplementing its own FFTW interface, and in doing so it did not set flags correctly.

Fix reproducibility bug in fft5d
fft5d has been accessing FFTW directly instead of using the
Gromacs FFT interface, and while doing so the estimate flag was
not correctly set for reproducible runs. For now we have just
fixed it, but this FFTW-specific code should be removed from fft5d,
or we will likely see more fft bugs due to duplicated code paths.
Fixes #1690.
