introducing {{wradlib}} jupyter notebooks

At a \(\omega radlib\) code-sprint early April, we thought about ways to make \(\omega radlib\) examples and tutorials more user-friendly, interactive and consistent.

These notebooks will be distributed along with wradlib, but they will also be rendered as tutorials/examples in the online documentation. In this ongoing process, all examples and tutorials will be reviewed and restructured if needed.
