This PR adds an IV curve calculation feature to pvsystem.singlediode.
As discussed in #83, the singlediode API remains unchanged for timeseries analysis: series in yields dataframe out. Scalar and array input still yield dict output (well, now an OrderedDict).
Setting the new ivcurve_pnts keyword argument to a non-zero number will always yield an OrderedDict. The dict will also include the keys i and v. The values will be arrays with dimension one greater than the input data (1d arrays for scalar input, 2d arrays for array/series input).
Hopefully that makes sense. The idea is that it "just works".
Example usage below.
Closes #83.
I would add the 5 IV curve points to the plot, but this PR does not include the fix in #222.
