Make everything in absorption numpy.array() #53

The load_data.load_table returns a pandas.Dataframe, but numpy.array is a bit more intuitive the an inexperienced users. The loading functions in absorption had a lot on inconsistencies between these two. Now everything is switched to numpy.array.

That's a pity. I actually just started to use the groupby functionality of pandas.Dataframe to get the data sorted for the grid scans with polarization switching. This works quite well.

Note that this is just for the functions in absorption, not for load_table.

Oh, I see. And this is very interesting to see how you do this, since this is also needed for diffraction.
