Photoionization
---------------
New namelist variable: euv_scl: Scales the resultant EUV spectra to change photoionization rates.
The photoionization rates can be modified by scaling the resultant EUV spectra. Note that this occurs independently of any modifications to the neutral atmosphere through MSIS. See Klenzing et al [2013] for examples. This is modified by the `euv_scale` keyword, and is passed through the namelist as euv_scl.

ExB Drifts
----------
Fejer-Scherliess remains the default model for drifts, but the user may now input a series of Fourier coefficients to describe the ExB drifts as a function of local time rather than use the Fejer-Scherliess model.
Fejer-Scherliess remains the default model for drifts, but the user may now input a series of Fourier coefficients to describe the ExB drifts as a function of local time rather than use the Fejer-Scherliess model. The coefficients are specified by the `ExB_drifts` keyword, which are passed into sami2 through the new exb.inp file. The fourier coefficient routine replaces the sine wave triggered when .fejer. = false.

Horizontal Wind Model
---------------------
Sami2py uses the HWM-14 model by default.
Sami2py uses the HWM-14 model by default. Users may specify HWM93 or HWM07 for comparison through the `hwm_model` keyword, which is passed through the namelist as hwm_mod.
