EASA ANP fleet database bridge for the ECAC Doc 29 airport-noise chain.

The ECAC Doc 29 method in [`phonometry.aircraft.airport_noise`](/phonometry/reference/api/aeroacoustics/airport-noise/) places an
aircraft's noise at a receiver from a Noise-Power-Distance (NPD) table and a
flight profile. Both come, for real aircraft types, from the **Aircraft Noise
and Performance (ANP)** database maintained by EUROCONTROL/EASA: per aircraft it
tabulates NPD curves (`LAmax` and `SEL` versus slant distance for a set of
engine power settings, per operation mode) and default trajectories.

This module reads the ANP database tables (the semicolon-delimited CSV exports)
and exposes, for a given aircraft identifier and operation:

* [`AnpNpdCurves`](/phonometry/reference/api/aeroacoustics/anp-fleet/#anpnpdcurves) -- the NPD curves (`LAmax`/`SEL` versus distance for
  each tabulated power), with a `.plot()`;
* [`AnpProfile`](/phonometry/reference/api/aeroacoustics/anp-fleet/#anpprofile) -- the default fixed-point trajectory as a Doc 29 flight
  path `(N, 5)` with the takeoff/landing ground-roll masks, with a `.plot()`;
* [`AnpAircraft`](/phonometry/reference/api/aeroacoustics/anp-fleet/#anpaircraft) -- the aircraft metadata plus convenience wiring
  ([`AnpAircraft.event_level`](/phonometry/reference/api/aeroacoustics/anp-fleet/#anpaircraftevent_level), [`AnpAircraft.noise_contour`](/phonometry/reference/api/aeroacoustics/anp-fleet/#anpaircraftnoise_contour)) that feeds
  the NPD curves and the profile straight into the existing Doc 29 functions.

[`load_anp_database`](/phonometry/reference/api/aeroacoustics/anp-fleet/#load_anp_database) returns an [`AnpDatabase`](/phonometry/reference/api/aeroacoustics/anp-fleet/#anpdatabase). Called without a path
it loads the full EASA ANP database (archive version 2.3) shipped with the
package (see `aircraft/data/anp/PROVENANCE.md`); pointed at a directory it
reads any other ANP CSV export the user provides.

Only the fixed-point trajectories are read as ready-to-use profiles; procedural
step profiles (which require the ICAO Doc 9911 / Doc 29 Vol 2 flight-mechanics
performance model) are outside this bridge, and NPD curves are available for
every aircraft regardless.

Source (clean-room, implemented from the published table format): EASA ANP
database v2.3 (2020) and the ECAC Doc 29 4th ed. Vol 2 NPD/profile conventions.
