[pymvpa] removing some for loops in _smv.py

[Yaroslav Halchenko]

I remember Michael had recently expanded metrics support -- so it might
be we don't need anything more there ;)

the question is in what shape do you have your FIRs? just a separate
dataset per each FIR delay?  then I guess you could simply create a new
dataset by combining all those 4D to get 5D volume, create MaskedDataset
based on that one, then see how its mapper.metric could be adjusted so
whenever you use mapper.getNeighbors you obtain only the ones in the
given FIR time-offset

BTW -- have you done GLM with FIR modeling outside? since we have basic
GLM modeling now, I guess you could easily do it within PyMVPA -- just
specify that easy FIR design. It probably will be slower though
