💻 Solver request: jiang2016

This algorithm iterates over the semi-major axis of the orbit. To be honest, I do not see why this is considered to be a "new algorithm"... In fact, it looks exactly the same as Lagrange's solution to the Lambert's problem. Anyway, because this algorithm is easy to implement, let us add it to the library.
