Add solar-hsat to config

1. Solar PV with single-axis tracking is added as 'solar-hast' to carriers. 2. Capacity factors are taken from atlite. Land-use is 15% higher acc. to NREL (Land-Use Requirements for Solar Power Plants in the United States). 3. The option for adding solar-hast to the network is set to 'True' as default. 4. A color is added for solar-hsat
