A conceptually simple way of applying epistemic uncertainties on the site model parameters is to incorporate them within the GMM logic tree (i.e., same GMM, but different site params per branch of the GMM logic tree, with weight per branch needing to represent the product of GMM weight and site parameter weight).
This PR permits this through the use of ModifiableGMPE to simply update the site model params to those of given branch and then run the regular compute method on the underlying GMPE. We can expand (or potentially add more complex adjustments) as required in future site-specific projects too.
I add a QA test (classical/case_46) and some simple unit tests.
