Pre-Condensation 0 Builder ABC class

[Gorkowski]

Changes Implemented:

• BuilderABC Class: The BuilderABC class abstracts common methods for building classes into an Abstract Base Class, such as check_keys, set_parameters, pre_build_check, and build. This ensures consistency and reusability across different builder classes. For example, the vapor pressure builder and factory have been updated to utilize BuilderABC, removing code duplication.

• Input Handling (convert_units): The convert_units function in input handling has been improved to manage non-multiplicative unit conversions. An additional parameter value was added to support conversions, such as temperature, which are not simple scaling by multiplication.

Example usage, from the Future, for how mixin's are used to add methods dynamically to builders.

class SurfaceStrategyMolarBuilder(
    BuilderABC,
    BuilderDensityMixin,
    BuilderSurfaceTensionMixin,
    BuilderMolarMassMixin
):
    """Builder class for SurfaceStrategyMolar objects.

    Methods:
    --------
    - set_surface_tension(surface_tension, surface_tension_units): Set the
        surface tension of the particle in N/m. Default units are 'N/m'.
    - set_density(density, density_units): Set the density of the particle in
        kg/m^3. Default units are 'kg/m^3'.
    - set_molar_mass(molar_mass, molar_mass_units): Set the molar mass of the
        particle in kg/mol. Default units are 'kg/mol'.
    - set_parameters(params): Set the parameters of the SurfaceStrategyMolar
        object from a dictionary including optional units.
    - build(): Validate and return the SurfaceStrategyMolar object.
    """
