[Eeglablist] baseline correction

Dear Angel,

Good skepticism.
You can run a simple experiment with STUDY to see whether it really
subtract the baseline.

1. precompute ONLY ERP
2. set baseline period to a) -200 to 0 ms b) entire epoch length, to see
the difference in the end (i.e. after clustering)

Because here you are only dealing with ERP precompute and clustering should
not take too long time.
