`AUTOCALIBRATION` flag values are not documented #23

The AUTOCALIBRATION flag values inside the MESH_input_run_options.ini file are not properly documented. It is a point of ambiguity for new users. The current documentation sits here: https://wiki.usask.ca/display/MESH/MESH_input_run_options.ini#MESH_input_run_options.ini-ControlFlags

Here is the what is available now for this flag on the above webpage:

AUTOCALIBRATION FLAG:
If AUTOCALIBRATION FLAG >= 1, MESH will provide options for DDS autocalibration to pre-empt (using PREMPTIONFLAG) if the current trial is worse than the best trial found so far, and to choose available objective functions (using the OBJFNFLAG). The value of the AUTOCALIBRATION FLAG is used to exclude part of streamflow data in the objective function calculation (spin-up period).
If AUTOCALIBRATIONFLAG = 0, DDS autocalibration can be set with out pre-emption option and using an externally calculated objective function value.
By default, the AUTOCALIBRATION FLAG = 0

I'm drafting the page with the information.
