  2. Change default fom_rate to zero 

    By default, do not allow for the growth of fixed O&M costs (per vintage) over time

I also had to force the `config.fom_rate` in the equation to a float, otherwise I received this error:

``ValueError: Integers to negative integer powers are not allowed.``

  4. Change decay to start at config.base_year instead of config.y0 

    Instead of projecting cost reductions starting at the model start year (`y0`), I've now changed the tool to start projecting at the base year (`base_year`). If `base_year` is greater than `y0` (which is 2020), the base year cost is held constant from `y0` to `base_year`.

  6. Edit the cost assumptions for select CCS technologies 

    We were seeing instances where the costs of certain CCS technologies were becoming lower than their non-CCS counterparts.

As a fix for now, I am manually changing the input assumptions for these technologies so that:
1) the CCS and non-CCS counterparts are mapped to the same WEO technologies (and therefore use the same regional differentiation)
2) the CCS technologies follow the same cost reduction narratives as their non-CCS counterparts
