Add support for simplicial complexes #1

Closed nwlandry closed 2 years ago

Because one can infer all the sub-interactions given a simplex, perhaps it is beneficial to store a simplicial complex using it's maximal edges to save space and perhaps use to develop efficient algorithms.

Importantly, if we change the internal data structure, we would have to create an entirely new class (as opposed to inherit from Hypergraph). This is not necessarily a problem, but it will require rewriting essentially the entire interface.
