Directional anisotropy added to detect and trascribe layers #17

Bird vocalization direction is random (0-359 degrees). This is registered for all vocalizations in the behavior object.

Detection can be affected by direction relative to observer through the sensitivity argument combined with direction=TRUE in the detection layer.

The direction setting from the detection object then impacts the error and bias in the transcription layer.

Note: bias can be used without direction as well.
