v0.9.0

KiteUtils v0.9.0

Diff since v0.8.4

Breaking changes

• you can (and should) now use SysState{P}() to create a new, empty SysState and then fill the fields with
  the actual values in other packages that use KiteUtils. This makes your code robust for later changes to the
  struct SysState.

Changes

• all code related to logging of SysState structs is now auto-generated by the script build.jl based on the content
  of the file sysstate.yaml. This makes it much easier to add or remove fields for logging.
• the vectors v_wind_gnd, v_wind_200m and v_wind_kite were added to SysState
• the scalars AoA, CL and CD were added to SysState
• the properties x, y and z of SysLog now represent the position of the 4-point kite

Added

• the properties x1, y1 and z1 of SysLog were added and represent the position of the 1-point kite

Merged pull requests:

• Remove naca (#60) (@1-Bart-1)
• New sysstate, added 6 fields, new properties, build script (#61) (@ufechner7)
