Background and warnings: Land / Space availability #15

It might be helpful to add a comment on land availability to the "Background and warnings" list. Availability of space / land is not considered in the model. This can lead to misinterpretations regarding the achieved installed capacities.

Under the demand setting it does say "Demand should be large enough for utility-scale assets but small enough to neglect land availability constraints." But I'll add something under "Warnings".
