Allow BA or Util priority in assigning FERC 714 respondent_type #650

Currently we assume that a FERC 714 respondent is a Balancing Authority if its ID shows up in the list of Balancing Authority IDs, and a Utility if it does not. We could also make the reverse assumption, and would get a different set of geometries. LBL has requested that we make both options possible for comparison.

This will mean a change to the pudl.analysis.demand_mapping.categorize_eia_code() function to allow selecting which type of entity should have priority.
