model: load paths of nonlinear static steps

NonlinearStatic::load_path gives the load factor against the step fraction,
piecewise linear from [0, 0] to fraction 1, so a step can unload or reverse
its loads and prescribed displacements (cyclic loading of path-dependent
materials). Validated (2 to 1000 finite points, increasing fractions), with
load_factor and next_turn for the solver's increments.
