Adding free flight simulations

[camUrban]

Description

This PR adds the ability to perform simulations that couple an airplane's motion to the aerodynamic forces due to its motion.

Motivation

Adding coupled simulations increases the use-cases of Ptera Software beyond pure aerodynamic investigations and makes it more attractive for general robotics simulations.

Relevant Issues

Closes #65 and improves upon solution to #50.

Changes

• Adds the CoupledOperatingPoint class to pterasoftware/operating_point.py
• Adds the CoupledMovement class to pterasoftware/movements/movement.py
• Adds the CoupledUnsteadyProblem class to pterasoftware/problems.py
• Adds the CoupledSteadyProblem class to pterasoftware/problems.py
• Adds pterasoftware/mujoco_model.py, which contains the MuJoCoModel class.
• Adds pterasoftware/coupled_unsteady_ring_vortex_lattice_method.py, which contains the CoupledUnsteadyRingVortexLatticeMethodSolver class.
• Updates pterasoftware/__init__.py to import the new modules.
• Fixes inconsistency in UnsteadyRingVortexLatticeMethodSolver's _calculate_loads method where it was using different functions for calculating the cross product for each LineVortex leg.
• Removes redundant increment of index variable in pterasoftware.output.animate.
• Adds checks to prevent plotting non-existent wake RingVortex pterasoftware.output.animate and pterasoftware.output.draw.
• Changes output formatting in output.print_results to display values in scientific notation for better readability across scales.
• Introduces the rotationPointOffset_Gs_Ler parameter to WingMovement, allowing specification of a custom rotation point for wing angular motion.
• Improves delta_time's "optimize" mode by tuning the local optimizer and introducing a fall back to dual annealing as a global optimizer.
• Fixes a bug in delta_time's "optimize" mode where static cases weren't improved.
• Speeds up test suite by removing redundant tests and using coarser mesh parameters for geometry fixtures.
• Refactors CLAUDE.md to be significantly shorter by breaking up instructions and guidelines into other files in docs/. This uses the progressive disclosure strategy known to produce better results.
• Adds MUJOCO_CONVENTIONS.md file with verified interpretations of MuJoCo's relevant inputs and outputs.
• Adds animate_free_flight function in output.py, along with a few helper functions.

Temporary Debug Scripts to Remove Before Merging

• [ ] debugging_scripts and all files within
• [ ] docs/FREE_FLIGHT_DEVELOPMENT.md
• [ ] gammabot_simulations and all files within

New Dependencies

• MuJoCo

Change Magnitude

Moderate: Medium-sized change that adds or modifies a feature without large-scale impact.
