Beam parameters assigned to beam_ids
Currently, it is not possible to assign, say, different diameters to different beam_ids within a telescope_config yaml. For instance,
```
beam_paths:
  0: 'airy'
  1: 'gaussian'
sigma: 0.3
diameter=14.0
```

This will assign diameter=14m to both the airy and gaussian beams. There's currently no way to specify which analytic beam parameters go to which beams.

One way to solve this is to change the syntax so that each beam path is a list:

```
beam_paths:
  0: 'airy', diameter=15.0
  1: 'gaussian', diameter=14.0
```
