Extraction of authors and title from papers #12

Description

@gerking

When generating the proceedings.tex, the authors' names are extracted from the square brackets [...] inside each paper.tex:

Check for all paper.tex that all authors are the format \author[Firstname Lastname \and ...]{...}

This is somewhat unfortunate because authors often use these square brackets for abbreviations, e.g., [Lastname et al.]
However, if proceedings.tex uses these abbreviations, they will appear in the table of contents and proceedings.bib, where one would usually expect to see all authors.

Would it be possibly to extract the authors' names from the curly braces inside each paper.tex? The abbreviated forms could still be copied into proceedings.tex as the optional argument of \addpaper, so that they will be shown in the header of the respective paper.

(Obviously, the same applies to the paper titles.)
