Module bases

(INTERNAL) base classes RhumbBase and RhumbLineBase, pure Python version of Karney's C++ classes Rhumb and RhumbLine from GeographicLib versions 2.0 and 2.2 and Karney's C++ example Rhumb intersect.

Class RhumbLineBase has been enhanced with methods Intersecant2, Intersection and PlumbTo to iteratively find the intersection of a rhumb line and a circle or an other rhumb line, respectively a perpendicular geodesic or other rhumb line.

For more details, see the C++ GeographicLib documentation, especially the Class List, the background information on Rhumb lines, the utily RhumbSolve and Online rhumb line calculations.
