Residential and commercial floor space

[robinhasse]

Purpose of this PR

If the input data allows, the parameter p36_floorspace now distinguishes reidential, commercial and total buildings. This parameter is not used in the optimisation but passed to remind2 to report sub-sectoral floor space.

Type of change

(Make sure to delete from the Type-of-change list the items not relevant to your PR)

• Minor change (default scenarios show only small differences)

Checklist:

• My code follows the coding etiquette
• I have performed a self-review of my own code
• Changes are commented, particularly in hard-to-understand areas
• I have updated the in-code documentation
• I have adjusted reporting where it was needed
• All automated model tests pass (FAIL 0 in the output of make test)

Might be an overkill but I included the if clause to not loose backwards compatibility with old input data due to this minor change. Once other development requires new input data anyways, I will remove the tolerance for old input data here too.

Update: With the current implementation, there is no backwards compatibility (tolerance for old input data) as this does not seem to be a relevant use case.
