PopulationSim QC visualization

[joecastiglione]

Redo the R validation script included with the example as a Python / Jupyter notebook. Include a new report model step as part of a run if desired. The benefit of this feature is to include built-in automated QA/QC procedures for improved usability. ActivitySim/populationsim#92

"Met Council: the R validation scripts have been useful to the Met Council in comparing PopulationSIm to our previous population synthesizer. It might be interesting to explore if adding some additional visualizations might be useful, e.g. allowing users to set criteria for highlighting TAZs and markets segments that don't meet certain control total thresholds. Also interested in tools that might help users evaluate how one sythetic population scenario dffers from another to gain insight into model senstivity to demographic inputs.

SANDAG: this relies on a data model as described in item 39?

SEMCOG: We rewrote this R validation script in Jupyter notebook in order for us to compare the performance of SEMCOG's Synthpop and PopulationSim. "
