Description

Currently we use a single averaged contact matrix to define mixing patterns. Implement a system for swapping between contact matrices based on date this will likely follow a similar structure to a piecewise beta_coef() modifier where some function like AbstractParameters.contact_matrix(t) will be responsible for returning the correct contact matrix for some time point t.

Research direction

Start by tracing AbstractParameters and the existing piecewise beta_coef() modifier mentioned in the issue. Determine how date-based parameter selection is represented and define the expected contact_matrix(t) behavior, including how completion will be tested across time points.
