deprecating fit in favor of fit_new

 

I propose that we deprecate "fit" and replace it with "fit_new" one week from now. holopy.analyze.fit_new should be renamed holopy.analyze.fit, and the current holopy.analyze.fit should be renamed holopy.analyze.fit_deprecated. All tests for the old "fit" should be deleted and replaced with tests for the new fit. This will encourage everyone to move to the new fit framework, and hopefully help us catch bugs. People can still do "from holopy.analyze.fit_deprecated import fit" if they need the old code, or they can check out earlier revisions of the dev branch.

This means we will have one week to stabilize the specification for the new fit framework. Please add comments and todo items for the specification to the blueprint:
