skytrackr: A Sky Illuminance Location Tracker

Calculate geolocations by light using template matching. The routine uses a calibration free optimization of a sky illuminance model to determine locations robustly using a template matching approach, as described by Ekstrom (2004) <https://nipr.repo.nii.ac.jp/records/2496>, and behaviourly informed constraints (step-selection).
