GEB v0.1: a large-scale agent-based socio-hydrological model -- simulating 10 million individual farming households in a fully distributed hydrological model

What's Changed

• Improve model startup time
• Improve detection of outflow boundaries. Now uses intersection between river lines and geometry boundary.
• Add an option in the config to run only coastal models.
• Add tests for building a coastal model.
• Many type fixes
• Refactor reporter
• By default export discharge data for outflow points
• Use ZSTD compressor by default in write_zarr. This fixes a continuing error where forcing data was sometimes NaN
• Use ZSTD compressor in reporter. This makes exporting data much faster.
• Use a dynamically sized buffer to make writing in reporter more efficient, and reduce number of output files.
• Remove annotations from docstrings in farmers.py
• Do not use self in setup_donor_countries
• Export discharge at outflow points by default (new setting in report: _outflow_points: true/false)
• Add some tests for reporting
• Remove support for Blosc encoding because of random async issues. Requires re-run of setup_forcing and setup_spei
• Move examples to geb dir, so that they are included in the wheel

To support this version:

• Re-run setup_forcing and setup_spei
