cerf: A Python package to evaluate the feasibility and costs of power plant siting for alternative futures

Description

v2.2.0 CERF

New parameter enabled named operational_life_yrs and is read in through the configuration file after lifetime.

Description: A separate parameter to allow for early retirement of power plants (i.e., not operating to their full expected life) and is set as the number of years after siting that the plant gets retired. This can account for expectations that some technologies will be forced to retire early in a future year.

This parameter will replace lifetime in determining future retirement within CERF. Lifetime will still be used to calculate other variables.
