wallpapering is disabled #125

As of #123 , I have disabled the wallpapering option in the scenario builder because it's not clear how it should work given the new more complicated LULC.

With the new composite LULC, we no longer symbolize that raster, instead we only display its component parts one at a time: NLCD, NLUD, or tree cover. Without a visual for the composite LULC, it doesn't seem to make sense to use it for wallpapering. We could let people wallpaper with one of the component layers, e.g. NLCD, but then we need to add functionality to apply NLUD & tree cover classes on top of that, to re-create the composite LULC for which we have biophysical parameters.

Given the complexity of that from a UX perspective, and the fact that we don't really know if there is demand for it (see #111 ), wallpapering is disabled for now.
