convert more types to float for easier serialization

was not matching some derived classes

also fix some associated error and log messages

convert IFO Structs to yaml for HDF5 storage

allow use of --no-plot option with interactive mode, and improve
banner and docs.

this was a bug that it wasn't using a defined freq attribute if it was
available and a freq argument was not provided at initialization.

same as str for now.

This fixes a bug whereby un-styled traces for some reason pick up the
previous trace style.

Don't use the root logger since it's sometimes used by other modules, and
it's kind of sloppy to do so.

Correct test mass RoCs in aLIGO ifo.yaml

Fix coating brownian so it agrees with Hong

Budget import mechanism in load_budget currently doesn't allow for importing from sub-modules.  This fixes that issue.

gwinc.test: inherit python interpreter

See merge request !88

Pass sys.executable to the gen_cache.sh script, instead of using a
hard-coded interpreter path

The small remaining discrepancy between Hong and gwinc is due to
an error in gwinc's implementation of the Yam et al model.

The coefficient in front of the phase derivative `dcdp_z` is
supposed to be `nN` (as written correctly in Yam et al, eq 1),
not `nN/2` (as found in gwinc).

In Hong et al, the coefficient is `nN/2`, but that's because
their phases are defined as one-way instead of round-trip (see
Yam et al, eq A2).

After correcting the error, gwinc and Hong agree, as expected,
for the case of equal bulk and shear losses and no
photoelasticity.

This should fix a bug whereby individual noise calibrations were not being
tracked internally properly.

The calibrations weren't being extracted properly from the noise tuples.

closes #58

also internal variable names for consistency

added the function for optimal squeeze angle. Works for A+

Fix an error in the coating brownian noise calculation

See merge request !77

A discrepancy was found by Gabriele Vajente between the gwinc
CTN calculation and several other codes, especially in the case
of large Poisson ratio in the coating.

See: https://git.ligo.org/gabriele-vajente/thermal-noise-models

This commit resolves the discrepancy by fixing an apparent error
in the Yam et al calculation that was implemented in gwinc.

The job was comparing against "origin/master", which for MR submitted
from forks is likely not the target project.  This updates the API
script that fetches the MR info to also output the target project URL,
from which an 'upstream' remote is fetched for comparison.
