Extend ModelBuilder functionality

[fletchapin]

While building more models, I drafted the following list of features that would be nice to have in the ModelBuilder:

• Create the following templates:
  • junction with Medium as a parameter and an optional number of inputs and outputs
  • concentration-sensor that takes in the Substance and Unit as an argument
  • dosing-point with a supply Tank, Pump, and Junction to inject the chemical with Medium as a parameter
• Add a create_sensor flag to add_properties() that will automatically create a sensor if True

The model builder is really based on creating one equipment at a time. The main issue is that in BuildingMOTIF you can't do any string manipulation, so if there is a Tank, Pump, and Junction, the names for all of these would have to be exposed as parameters and handled in python.

For now, I think dosing pump can just be created in the script using the create_equipment and create_junction functions

Moving everything to a new repo for models too

Thanks for the feedback on ModelBuilder!

Variadic stuff has been on my list for awhile and I think I have an idea of it could work. I put an example in https://github.com/DataDrivenCPS/water-ontology/blob/gtf-model-builder-changes/notebooks/ModelBuilder.ipynb (and the implementation is in NatLabRockies/BuildingMOTIF#372). I think I'll add a 'variadic' part to the TEmplate class (like 'optional') which lists the parameters that can be variadic.

I made a concentration sensor template that does what you want (I think!): https://github.com/DataDrivenCPS/water-ontology/blob/gtf-model-builder-changes/libraries/templates/equipment.yml#L272-L287 . The implementation was a little more complex than I wanted but I may revisit it.
