Redid RK4 function to consider horizontal velocity (angle) of rocket. (Also the implementation before had some issues) Created forces class and get_forces function which sore and calculate force in X and Y directions

To test run in debug mode and put a breakpoint at the end of the get_max alt function or uncomment the print line in get_max alt (move it out of while loop), Then run the ORK simulation with the extension on PID mode with 0 on each parameter and compare the final apogee value with the predicted values

This change is Reviewable
