v0.1.4

Changes

Fixes:

• Fix bug with incorrect prefactor in background calculation in postprocess (overestimation of bg signal)

Updates:

• Update all scripts utilizing parallel job execution (parallel simulation, gridscan, optimization) to use the same executor (in parallel.py)
• Rework core calculation scripts to use the same FFTExecutor which does batched transforms on three 3d arrays (vectors)
• Reduce memory footprint of calculation scripts
• Small refactoring of logging system, default filenames and keywords
• Add custom generation strategy to optimization script
