Add support for light curves #419

In order to support variability studies, I think we should think about how to ingest lightcurves (flux vs time). In many ways, these data are similar to spectra.

~~I think we'd want them to be compatibile with Astropy's Time Series object.~~
Consider visualizing with bokeh.

Working with @kmanjra and @elenamanjavacas on this. Plan is to use lightkurve's LightCurve class and their to_fits method and read_generic_lightcurve reader.
