Issue:
Restructure `pf.dsp.regularized_spectrum_inversion`
## General

* pyfar version: 0.5.2

## Description

We discussed that function in its current form is a bit too complicated. It has a special case of a regularization function implement through `freq_range`, etc. and a general case through `regu_final`. We decided to refactor the function on the long run:

- move the regularization function generated by `freq_range` et al. to a separate function/class
- always require to pass a regularization function to `pf.dsp.regularized_spectrum_inversion`
- regularization function must be passed as `FrequencyData`object

Pull request:
Regularization class
New class for regularization and spectrum inversion to replace `dsp.regularized_spectrum_inversion()`.
Each method of defining a regularization function has it's own class method, so more regularization types can easily be added.

Closes #440 #635 

### Changes proposed in this pull request:

- move spectrum inversion to `Regularization.invert()` and deprecate dsp function
- add possibility to pass target function for inversion. If provided the convolution of the inverse filter with the system approaches the target function.
- simplified regularization from frequency range by replacing regu_inside and regu_outside by a single regularization factor. To this end regu_inside is set to 0, and the `normalize` parameter is removed. Results using the new parameters are close to identical but the interface is cleaner (see example below).
- regularization from a passed signal, containing the regularization factors as `FrequencyData` (_regu_final_ in dsp-function)

### Previous vs. new implementation

The regularization function is now squared, which was not done previously but seems to be more common. This causes slight differences, with respect to the old method:

```python
import pyfar as pf
%matplotlib inline

sweep = pf.signals.exponential_sweep_freq(2**16, [50, 16e3], 1000, 10e3)

inversion_1 = pf.dsp.regularized_spectrum_inversion(sweep, [50, 16e3])

Inversion = pf.dsp.RegularizedSpectrumInversion.from_frequency_range(
    [50, 16e3])
inversion_2 = Inversion.invert(sweep, normalize_regularization='max')

ax = pf.plot.freq(inversion_1, label='previous')
pf.plot.freq(inversion_2, linestyle=':', label='new')
ax.legend()
```

![output](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/7ca66562-853e-466d-b8fb-4b660d1b346d)

### tbc
- Add more regularization types (e.g. maximum gain, automatic regularization parameter)

### For discussion:
- [x] Rename class to `RegularizedSpectrumInversion`, `from_signal` to `from_magnitude_spectrum`, and `get_regularization` to `regularization`
- [x] Use magnitude and phase of target function
- [x] Make the normalization of the regularization function a parameter
- [x] Check warnings for using `len(Signal)` when using `if signal`
- [ ] Examples Notebook

+class RegularizedSpectrumInversion():
+    r"""Class for frequency-dependent regularized inversion.
+
+    Regularized inversion limits the gain applied by an inverse filter.
+    This can be useful to avoid extreme amplification when inverting a signal
+    of limited bandwidth or containing notches in the spectrum.
+
+    The inverse is computed as [#]_:
+
+    .. math::
+        :label: regularized_inversion
+
+        S^{-1}(f) = \frac{S^*(f)}{S^*(f)S(f) + \beta |\epsilon(f)|^2} D(f)
+
+    with :math:`f` being the frequency, :math:`S(f)` the spectrum of the signal
+    to be inverted, :math:`^*` the complex conjugate,
+    :math:`\epsilon(f)` the regularization, and :math:`\beta` a scalar to
+    control the amount of regularization. :math:`D(f)` denotes an optional
+    target function.
+
+    The compensated system :math:`C = S(f)S^{-1}(f)` approaches the target
+    function in magnitude and phase. In many applications, the target function
+    should contain a delay to make sure that :math:`S^{-1}(f)` is causal. The
+    larger :math:`\beta` and :math:`\epsilon(f)` are, the larger the deviation
+    of :math:`C(f)` from the target :math:`D(f)`.
+
+    The inversion is done in two steps:
+
+    1. Define :math:`S(f)`, :math:`\epsilon(f)`, :math:`\beta`, and
+       :math:`D(f)` using one of the ``from_...()`` methods listed below.
+    2. Compute the inverse :math:`S(f)^{-1}` using :py:func:`~invert`
+
+    The parameters that are defined in the first step are often iteratively
+    adjusted. Examples are given in the documentation of the ``from_...()``
+    methods.
