[Bug-gsl] Electron charge units in gsl_const_cgsm.h

I think that the electron charge in gsl_const_cgsm.h should be
expressed in statcoulomb instead of coulombs. Coulombs is a MKS unit, not a
CGS unit.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statcoulomb

In statcoulombs the charge of the electron is about 4.8e-10.
