The new functionality added in this PR can handle datasets like the SMU Temperature-at-Depth Dataset, the USGS Heat Flow datasets, and even point-like datasets such as Identified or Unidentified Hydrothermal locations. This functionality is compliant with the reV standard format and is ready to be fully integrated into reV.
Details
Added GeothermalResource class. This class behaves like the WindResource class, with depth as the analogous variable to hub_height. Indeed, both are the children of a new AbstractInterpolatedResource class, which provides the functionality it was named after.
Added new test file to cover test cases for Geothermal resources.
