This introduces the new body Astronoby::Moon and an entire algorithm to compute its ecliptic coordinates.

The algorithm is based on the Lunar theory called "Éphéméride Lunaire Parisienne" by Jean Chapront and Michelle Chapront-Touzé, and used by Jean Meeus's formulae in Astronomical Algorithms.

time = Time.utc(2015, 1, 1)
moon = Astronoby::Moon.new(time: time)

coordinates = moon.apparent_ecliptic_coordinates

coordinates.latitude.str(:dms)
# => "-2° 53′ 58.1867″"

coordinates.longitude.str(:dms)
# => "+50° 37′ 3.5842″"

This introduces the new body `Astronoby::Moon` and an entire algorithm
to compute its ecliptic coordinates.

The algorithm is based on the Lunar theory called "Éphéméride Lunaire
Parisienne" by Jean Chapront and Michelle Chapront-Touzé, and used by
Jean Meeus's formulae in Astronomical Algorithms.

```rb
time = Time.utc(2015, 1, 1)
moon = Astronoby::Moon.new(time: time)

coordinates = moon.apparent_ecliptic_coordinates

 # => "-2° 53′ 58.1867″"

coordinates.longitude.str(:dms)
