Use FFTs in poloidal direction where possible

2

Several objectives now use `QuadratureGrid` or `LinearGrid` for their default (to get accurate volume or surface averages), and because they are uniform in the poloidal direction we could possibly use...

Combine near axis constraints into fewer number of `Objectives`

3

Right now when you `get_NAE_constraints` it returns a whole bunch of individual `FixSumXModes` objects, it would be cleaner if they were all packaged into a single object like `FixNAEX`, where...

Simplify `Objective` class args and docstrings

3

We have an ever growing number of objectives, with pretty much all of the init methods being something like this ```python def __init__(self, thing, target, bounds, weight, normalize, ... (other...

Reduce testing time/memory

2

Running our basic unit tests now takes 1.5+ hrs for me locally, and fairly often it will get killed due to OOM issues if I'm trying to do anything else...

Add particle confinement proxies
