Add Animation Capabilities and Project Structure

Overview

PR takes the original static ball bounce analysis and adds an interactive animated visualization by adding new animation capabilities and reorganizing the project structure for maintainability.

Key Changes

Created new animation scripts to visualize what was previously only static plots
Added two types of animations:
- Position vs. time plots (previously static graphs only)
- Physics-based bouncing ball simulations (new feature)
Restructured project into modular components (data, analysis, visualization, utils)
Created unified command-line interface for running animations

New Animation Features

Real-time visualization of ball trajectories
Interactive controls for:
- Selecting ball types (golf, lacrosse, metal)
- Saving animations as GIF files
- Customizing animation parameters
Preserved original static analysis while adding animated counterparts

Technical Details

Created new directory structure for organization
Original static analysis scripts remain unchanged & accessible
Added virtual environment setup instructions
Included requirements.txt for new animation dependencies

Testing

Both original static analysis and new animations have been tested across different ball types and drop heights.

Documentation

Added detailed README.md with:

Project structure explanation
Setup instructions
Usage examples for both static and animated analysis
Physics background
Customization options
