WE_Mode setting 2 #360

Description

I'm in the process of learning more about ROSCO with a goal of generating a data for a simple wind ramp diagram. As I was going through the mode variables in the ROSCO tuning parameters, I noticed that parameter WE_Mode was set to 2, but I'm not sure what this means/why it's set to 2 since that doesn't seem to be an option: image Source: https://rosco.readthedocs.io/en/latest/source/toolbox_input.html

This is the specific file I was looking at (WE_Mode is on line 36): https://github.com/NREL/ROSCO/blob/main/Examples/Tune_Cases/NREL5MW.yaml

I saw some other issues in this repo refer to setting 2 as a Kalman filter, but would like confirmation: https://github.com/NREL/ROSCO/issues/25 https://github.com/NREL/ROSCO/issues/53

I updated the documentation in a docs branch. Please refer to the DISCON comments in the meantime: https://github.com/NREL/ROSCO/blob/8b85d7a923b5c2fd99f2178276304fa5ce0d18df/Examples/Test_Cases/IEA-15-240-RWT-UMaineSemi/DISCON-UMaineSemi.IN#L19

The issues cited have been closed. The EKF is the preferred wind speed estimator.
