Better spiking support #305

There is a spiking network implemented now (see leaky_lissom_or.ty), but it needs to be generalized to support a large family of spiking algorithms.

We'll also need various new analyses and plots for spike trains. We should consider interfacing to NEST to handle the hard-core computation.

Also, a better integrate-and-fire model to consider implementing for studies of adaptation is AdEx:

This model is like the Izhikevich reduced model, but adding capacity for adaptation.
