Imviz: Add a different radial profile approach

[javerbukh]

Description

This pull request is to address the need to add more plot options to the simple aperture photometry plugin in Imviz.

Partially fixes #1049 although a new ticket needs to be made to implement curve of growth. (The rest of #1049 will be part of #1048 anyway.)

Since radial profile is actually not a released feature (#1030), we don't need a change log here.

Curve of growth is being discussed at astropy/photutils#1298 .

[pllim]

Is the casting to list necessary here?

[javerbukh]

Surprisingly yes! This line throws an error without it, something about a typeerror between 64 bit and 32 bit numbers.

Thanks! I am definitely in favor of this PR since you have shown the performance boost by calculating the radial profile this way.

This code is from imexam, right? If so, you need to copy the imexam license to licenses/IMEXAM_LICENSE.rst here. Also please indicate clearly in the code where appropriate that the algorithm is from imexam and don't forget "see licenses/IMEXAM_LICENSE.rst" in that comment.

I applied my review directly as a second commit. The plot now looks like this:

I don't think this needs a second approval since Jesse already presented this to POs/devs earlier this week and received positive feedback already. I will merge when CI passes. Thanks!
