This PR adds an the intermediary telescope/coronagraph class ScdaAPLC to allow for a generic telescope created from a set of input files from the SCDA working group, as fits files. Such a set must consist of:

This was done to be able to create a new specific telescope class HexRingAPLC. This class allows us to instantiate hexagonally segmented apertures with varying number of segment rings, and according apodizers. This is work in preparation for the 2022 SPIE proceeding Nickson et al. (fyi @brynickson).
