[Bill-Becker]

Adds CST (concentrating solar thermal) and HighTempThermalStorage technology models from this REopt.jl PR:

• Add Concentrating Solar Thermal (CST) with HighTempThermalStorage Technologies REopt.jl#507

Also merged defaults update PR:

• Default Updates #654

@jtkadlec Is this actually a CST output?

[jtkadlec]

@Bill-Becker it is yes. Here is where it's defined: https://github.com/NREL/REopt.jl/blob/add-cst-reopt/src/results/cst.jl#L31

[jtkadlec]

you're right and I missed this! this has been removed.
