public interface Movement

This is the interface to movements for Bridge tournaments. The implementation must manage the number of tables, of rounds and of boards per round. Furthermore one method has to be implemented which calculates the pairing and respective board set for a specific table in a specific round. We assume that there will be only one waiting pair be possible in a definite round.
