Ensure uniform units throughout the model #3

Problem description

The current input files mostly specify values in MW which are sometimes converted to GW https://github.com/highRES-model/highRES-Europe-GAMS/blob/8ac9041a1756f42437d177c8877ad6116250a3c4/highres.gms#L89

There are two cases:

  1. the switch is ON: in this case everything is in GW and the model should run fine
  2. the switch is OFF: we are comparing storage in GW vs MW for everything else ==> incorrect results/BUG?

Proposed solution:

Do everything in one unit and make the switch touch everything.
