Fit multiple peaks in chi2 map of interferometric observations #350

Description: Several members of the exoGRAVITY team would like to be able to compute a likelihood for several nearby interferometric peaks. For obs with low UV coverage, several nearby peaks often look similar, and it's hard to know which one is "right."

Proposed solution: I think the most straightforward solution will be adding likelihoods from several Gaussian likelihoods, one for each peak.

Alternatives: We could also try to fit more complicated functions.
