 rate_stream::get_processed_data
        Return the processed data from a rates stream.

 Usage:
        data=strid->get_processed_data({/rate|/time})
    or
        data=strid->get_processed_data(/pointer)

 Keywords:
        pointer If set and non-zero, then return a 2 element array of
                pointers the first pointing to the data and the second
                to the time. (WARNING don't free these pointers).
        rate    If set, then return the rates array.
        time    If set, then return the times array.
        sector  If this is set and rate is also set, then only return
                the specified sector (note that this is a sector
                index, rather than a sector number as the mapping of
                sector indices to sectors is a dataset property).
        latitude Return the latitude information (if available).
        distance Return the heliocentric distance info.
        tm_ref Return the pointer to the time reference count. (Note
                that the pointer is always returned.
        ephem_ref       Return the pointer to the ephemeris reference count.
        errors  Return the error limits.
        errtime Return the times for the error limits.

 If no keys are given, 0 will be returned.
