Revise mobility to be a rate instead of absolute numbers #81

Currently, mobility is inputted as absolute numbers of individuals moving between locations. This is then use to calculate a rate against the inputted geodata inside the model.

This should be revised to

  1. Be inputted as a rate from the start
  2. Have the option to be time-resolved so we can vary mobility over time if we want

I would add to this, and instead say we should call this file "mixing". The value we input for M(A,B) should be % of the population of A that interacts with the population of B each day.
