Update stationtrackplot and use case for comparing to 2 epochs #40

Closed wbalmer closed 8 months ago

We'll need to update stationtrackplot with #37 (easy enough), but I'd also like to introduce a new use case for the package. Similar to the functionality request in #39 , I'd like for the user to be able to determine the goodness of fit between their data and a stationary, infinite distance background track, and I'd like for this functionality (and therefore stationtrackplot itself) to be usable even without running the sampler - that way someone can use the package even if they only have two epochs of data (I image this will be a big use case with, e.g. JWST imaging campaigns, like some of us are involved in).
