Added active thermal components and usage examples

[eytanadler]

Purpose

This change adds active thermal components to OpenConcept. Additionally, components to help better interface the new components with aircraft models and usage examples have been added. The following components and examples are the notable additions:

• SimpleHeatPump in thermal.py: heat pump with efficiency based on fraction of Carnot efficiency
• HeatPumpWithIntegratedCoolantLoop in thermal.py: SimpleHeatPump integrated into hot side and cold side coolant heat transfer components for easy integration directly into coolant loops
• TwinSeriesHybridElectricPropulsionRefrigerated in thermal_series_hybrid.py: an example of HeatPumpWithIntegratedCoolantLoop implemented into a propulsion model to add active cooling for the battery and electric motor
• HybridTwin_active_thermal.py: an example of the refrigerated propulsion system integrated into a working aircraft model; shows usage of the hot and cold side set temperatures along with the refrigerator bypass switch to control the refrigerator

To implement the above, general purpose utilities were added. Of the ones added, the following are the most generally useful:

• SelectorComp in selector.py: takes in any number of user-specified inputs and routes one to the single output depending on the value of the selector input; used to control the refrigerator bypass
• MaxComp and MinComp in max_min_comp.py: takes a vector input and returns a scalar output that is the max/min of the input

I think this file is probably a candidate to be deleted - maybe committed by mistake?

Good catch, just removed it
