Refactored DesignXPloration.py classes to support vaiables customization (#1003)

* Release new version with examples update

* Refactored DesignXPloration.py classes to support vaiables customization

* Refactored DesignXPloration.py classes to support vaiables customization

* Refactored DesignXPloration.py classes to support vaiables customization

* renamed set_variable to add_variation to be coherent with Parametrics
