`linear_interp_*` type allow `intent(in)` in `evaluate` method

The evaluate
method of a linear_interp_*
object in a procedure, requires the latter to be intent(inout)
while I would like to make sure that it is intent(in)
to avoid accidental modification of the input arrays used for the interpolation. Furthermore, evaluate
only returns a real variable, nothing user-facing is changed in the object.

No, it has to be inout
because of the dintrv
function, so it can keep track of the last element accessed. This makes it way more efficient that having to do the search every time from scratch.
