Bug in zero's finding of bessel functions

Description
The zero finding routine for cylindrical bessel functions gives incorrect values for a large number of nodes for a variety of orders. Examples are
order = 3/2, first zero. Reported at 8.3825 but should be at 8.1825, i.e. 0.2 lower. I check refined all first 100 zeros up to order 100+1/2 using a golden section search against a spherical bessel function. Where there are errors, they are always 0.2.
