Improve winds aloft calculation with feedback from #10. New method should return more accurate results, and "extremeness" of winds aloft can be tweaked using the new configurable "stability" parameter. The default value should be sensible and not differ too much from previous methods. For more info on the calculation see the following: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_profile_power_law
