Deaggregate population impact models by gender by default #156

This is a key measure and when available should be used. First cab off the rank are models using Podes data.

The plan is to have two raster datasets - one with population numbers and the other with percentage of females. They can be linked using the keywords of the main layer: For example associates: podes_female_yogya

Then the associated layer(s) can be added to list passed on to the plugin

This functionality generalises to other layer collections such as multi-model ground acceleration datasets.

To achieve this we need

To access keywords from within the plugin. This is currently not possible because they are not stored in a keywords file when the layer is downloaded. This is issue #164

Then we need to equip the plugin with calculation of number of people affected - ideally this should be scale by native raster resolution, but we can perhaps assume 1 x 1 km for now. Issue #168

Using the gender layer, this statistics can the be broken up into males and females

This requires handling of multiple datasets: issue #178
