Improving the Python interface - Version 2.0

Working on improving the Python interface of the code, with goals to

• Make it pip-installable
• Make the interface "pythonesque"
• Port the C++ examples to Jupyter notebook

I addition, I want to implement a few new features; this will maybe be done separately in a new branch:

• Add the CLIC drive beam accelerator structure parameters (with the length as the free parameter) + maybe C3
• Add short range longitudinal wakefield calculation for energy spread limits

I am doing this work as I am interested in using CLICopti as a backend for optimizing the HALHF RF linacs.

It kind of looks like a lot, but most of the changes is that I moved a LaTeX document (tree) in the doc folder.
