Convert IXPE polar plot PyXspec notebook tutorial and include in HEASARC-tutorials #256

Description

@DavidT3

This may be less cut and dry than the other PyXspec tutorial notebooks - because, in its current form, it is entirely concerned with IXPE, it could very well go in the mission specific analyses IXPE subsection.

However, if it could be generalized to reflect that ISRO's XPoSat now exists, with polarimetric capabilities in the same vein as IXPE, it should possibly stay with all the other PyXspec notebooks.

Generalized version appeals to me, but I don't know enough about XPoSat yet to say if its possible. Also data access to ISRO missions can be a little challenging (at least Astrosat is/was last I tried).

Anyway, we'll see. If it were generalized then we could easily include a cut down demo at the end of an analysis demonstration notebook, and then refer to the generalized version in the XSPEC section.
