afforestation change calculation needs to be fixed

[aldivi]

afforestation input needs to be treated as direct prescribed annual change, rather than a total relative to an initial change value

this means that from lines:
for (i in 1:length(own_names)) {
to

calculate the conversion area matrices by ownership ,

Afforestation needs to be treated the same way as the meadow and marshes, instead of like growth.

@aldivi Is the only correction to make temp_adjust equal to the current year's afforestation area rather than subtracting the initial afforestation area from it? Or do you also mean to protect this area from land cover change like restoration area in meadow and marshes?

[aldivi]

i think it needs to be protected, like the others
