This removes an unnecessary limitation that the body provided to get_planet_chandra_horizons needed to be a planet. In fact any allowed Horizons body name or integer identifier is fine here. The function name is unfortunate since body can be anything now.
I also discovered that the previous CGI web interface is deprecated in favor of a new proper web API interface, so this migrates to that new interface.
For the key functions in the planets module this adds type annotations.
Interface impacts
None except expands the capability of get_planet_chandra_horizons.
