Research direction

This issue is part of #321 and describes a new model for Rubin's nightly survey schedule, including fields, slews, and the object's field. Start by reading #321 and tracing the existing demo that tracks the object all night; the issue does not name files or tests. Done means the demo models a night's survey schedule using the survey strategy or published visit lists.

Description

track:spacecraft

Part of #321. Rubin surveys the sky in 30-second visits across many fields; the discovery came from the pipeline's detections across them. The demo tracks the object all night to show where it is. Model a night's schedule (fields, the slews between them, the object's field among them), from the survey strategy or the published visit lists.
