API to use MSS figure objects in other python modules e.g. Jupyter Notebook

Project description: The MSS tool is currently designed for interactive use and having an mssautoplot cli script for post-campaign analysis, retrieving a standardized set of layers for hundreds of time-steps an automated plotting feature was developed. The next step is to create based on the mssautoplot an API to be used in other python modules.

This should enable a user to add its own data to our figures used. This is especially interesting for data of the linearview. There a user can overlay on its own measured data. In addition scatter plots shall be enabled. The new API may be used in a Jupyter Notebook. This needs also a different solution to create a mssautoplot.json file by a textual user interface.
