Linus Torvalds fb5ce88b81 gas model: update to new coefficients, and simplify expressions
This updates the gas model to use the new virial coefficients from the R
script, and simplifies the expression a tiny bit by avoiding the
division by 1000 for the gas fractions, and replacing it with a multiply
by 0.001 at the end.

The virial coefficients for Oxygen and Nitrogen changed in the last
digits due to the use of a different tool for the least-square fitting.
That also accounts for the change in format (the coefficients are not
using scientific notation).

The coefficients for Helium changed noticeably more, since they are now
based on the new least-squares fit from the raw data.

But the actual end result does not change appreciably, the main
advantage is that now the numbers are easily reproducible.
