Fitzpatrick99 Milky Way R(V) dependent Extinction Law
From Fitzpatrick (1999, PASP, 111, 63).
R(V) dependent extinction curve that explicitly deals with optical/NIR extinction being measured from broad/medium band photometry. Code based on fm_unred.pro from the IDL astronomy library
Extended to below 912 A using Draine et al. dust grain models.

Fitzpatrick99 extinction Law
- Parameters:
- lamb: float or ndarray(dtype=float)
wavelength [in Angstroms] at which to evaluate the law.
- Av: float
desired A(V) (default 1.0)
- Rv: float
desired R(V) (default 3.1)
- Alambda: bool
if set returns +2.5*1./log(10.)*tau, tau otherwise
- Returns:
- r: float or ndarray(dtype=float)
attenuation as a function of wavelength depending on Alambda option +2.5*1./log(10.)*tau, or tau
