Daniel Agar 9aa7991654 geo_lookup: upgrade table size (2 bytes per element) and add testing
- updated table to 2 bytes (int16) per element and scaled the inclination/declination/strength tables to use most of the range without being too awkward
 - tables have been extended to include the full latitude range
 - expanded the API slightly to offer declination/inclination in both degrees/radians and the magnetic strength in Gauss and Tesla
 - generated some simple testing that verifies interpolation between points
