Adding Object-Oriented tutorial

[bmorris3]

This is a little tutorial for creating your own Python object from scratch, building a LightCurve object and some related methods on it.

This closes #408 (thanks for the tip, @kelle!).

Is the %%writefile magic useable in this website framework?

[adrn]

This should work, but we might need to double check that it writes to the correct location

I'm going to need a bit of help with this PR. The section headers yield warnings and don't render, saying:

 WARNING: Title level inconsistent:

[adrn]

Thanks @bmorris3! I'll let others take a closer look at the content, but a few comments:

• You can ignore the title-level inconsistent warning
• Could you rebase on master to fix the circleci failure
• It is probably worth noting in the tutorial intro that there exist some existing implementations of light curve or time series classes (I'm thinking of http://docs.astropy.org/en/latest/timeseries/index.html and https://github.com/KeplerGO/lightkurve), so this is primarily meant for educational purposes

I think the issue that both @adrn and @bsipocz brought up about the time series class is an important one. Maybe y'all can discuss? Or we can discuss on the learn telecon this morning.

The content of the tutorial itself looks pretty good. It would be useful to point out that in this specific case there are a couple of potential packages that users should use instead of making their own class: astropy time series and lightkurve.

I think it is actually good to have as an example something that has a better/more complete implementation elsewhere.

👋 We have changed the build infrastructure and layout of files in the repo, so I am going to rebase this pull request and force push to your branch. If you have any local changes that haven't been pushed, please push them by the end of this week (October 1). After I have rebased to bring the new build machinery in, please let us know if you would like to continue working on this tutorial or if you would rather someone else take it over. Thanks!
