Long Run Hercules

Opening this draft pull request, with the branch on origin, to facillitate the development of long-running Hercules. @abhineet-gupta , you and I can either commit direct to this branch or else submit PRs to the branch from our forks.

We can further use this PR to track what we want to do and what we consider to be done. We will likely edit this front matter a lot as we go.

Items to do

• Set up new long-term running skeleton as alternative to amr-wind/floris-standin
• Implement 2-DOF turbine model
• Add FLORIS wakes
• Connect to inflow reads
• Make a wind-only example
• Make a wind+solar example
• Documentation

It looks like there is a conflict on a file that shouldn't be in the repository (.vscode/launch.json). It looks like this file slipped into the repository in #58 (although the .vscode directory was also added to the .gitignore in that PR). Likely, this can simply be removed from the repository.

@misi9170 Ah, yeah, I spoke with Zack about that file, we can delete it from the repository!
It seems to be an old debugging file hanging around

Thanks---I've removed it. I have a backup saved locally that I'll keep for the time being in case anyone needs it, just let me know.

EDIT: for some reason, this didn't resolve the conflict. I'll look into that some more.
