st: bug fix in ghk2/cmp

I've fixed what turned out to be a longstanding bug in ghk2(), which is called by -cmp- for models in which three or more equations have censoring in the same observations. One of the scores (derivatives of the log likelihood) returned by ghk2() could be slightly off, which could prevent cmp from converging in difficult models. If you use cmp for complicated models, I encourage you to get the latest version. Do "ssc install cmp, replace" and "ssc install ghk2, replace" and then restart Stata.
