Detailed Description

Base class for describing the response of electronics to charge.

Tracks the response function as a function of time (in us). This is a FunctionObject that takes either the padnumber and time to get the response function, or just the time. Deriving classes that only implement padnumber and time should throw an exception if the time only version is called. Because these meet the interface of a callable object they can be passed directly to an AtPulseTask as the response.

There is no normalization intrinsic to this class because that is also true in the code as written. IMO there should be and I think the best way is to normalize the functions so the maximum value is always 1. That way in simulation or analysis you can swap response functions arbitrarily without also chaning the gain or calibration.
