This PR added two new methods to Fuselage: vmt_diagram and lookup_loads.

VMT Diagram is really just for visual verifcation and reporting. It's a standardized format that will be expanded in the future. Crucially, since there is currently no evaluation of cumulative torque on the fuselage, the 'T' of the VMT is notably absent.

The Lookup Loads method allows the user to retrieve the internal shear and bending at any station, regardless of whether external loads are defined there or not. This utilizes linear interpolation between the defined points, and is deemed accurate enough for these purposes.

I also removed the call-overload check in mypy, because it was annoying me.

New vmt-diagram method that returns a standard matplotlib object.
New method to find loads at any arbitrary station, based on the VMT matrix.
