Implement Modified Nest Set Index for Rapid Watershed Delineation

[ptomasula]

Summary

The paper Development of a data model to facilitate rapid watershed delineation proposes a graph algorithm based approach for watershed delineation using a modified nested set index. The outlined approach would allow selection of upstream reaches from a given node (reach) based on two numerical indices, in place of more conventional techniques like adjacency lists or binary search.

Closure Criteria

• [x] Implement a modified nested set indexing algorithm to generate index for TDX hydro stream net geopackage files
• [x] Provide documentation on how to utilize output from nest set index for delineation
• [x] Run instructions for generating the modified nested set index from source files.

Thanks @aufdenkampe for connecting and helping debug this issue. As noted in the commit message for b21c352, the pervious implementation's conversion from a GeoDataFrame into a dictionary and back again was resulting in the loss of critical type information (e.g. CRS). As a result, the write method was not able to function correctly. The example notebook should be working now.
