Discussing with Markus Metz, it's apparent that v.kernel's '''Standard
deviation in map units''' field is unclear and has different meanings
depending on the kernel function used. E.g., the actual kernel radius is
currently a function of the SD and the selected kernel function.
USers should be just asked for the radius in map units. The SD would be
adjusted as necessary depending on the function.
It may be OK to retain an SD field for advanced cases, but it should not
be on the '''Required''' tab of the v.kernel UI.
