Combined Heating and Power Plants

This mod includes buildings from my previes power plant mods and modifies them.
It provides the ability to do heat and power generation to the included power plants.
The powerplants will produce Liquid Fertilizer as an substitute for Heat,
You need to connect the powerplants pipe output to a pump and from there to the heat storage facility with high priority.
The heat storage works like a heating plant (but uses Liquid fertilizer as heating source)
The heat storage also can store heat (LF) to work some time without the power plant (2 days)
You need to connect the cooling tower also to the pump but with low priority.
This is only important because if the heat storage is full the power production will stop or decrease.
This cooling tower is special, it does not show up in the bottom menu, its a factory and it does not produce anything, it will just cool surplus heat (it will get rid of unused liquid fertilizer)
The Cooling Towers need Water and electricity to work. regular cooling towers need more water but less electricity. There is also a less water dependent variant that will requiere more electricity
To prevent that you dont have enough heat it is recommend to run your power plants at full power, to do this i recommend a priority electric switch and set this power plant to high priority.
You may want to get rid of excess energy production to do this you need a power drain, you can use a border connection for this.
Connect the borderconnection with the priority switch and set it to low priority.
Your republics grid should be set to high priority. You can also use excess energy to power industry that is really demanding in energy like for example hydrogen production from my chemical mod.

- This version of the Geothermal pump needs to be placed on uranium
- The geothermal heating plants building is now a geothermal storage (it pumps heat into the deep to keep it hot)

This is all somewhat experimental so i would be happy to receive feedback especially on the values I used.

- added small gas powerplant based on the gas heating plant from previous mod
- added district heat pump (it produces heat with electric power, 2 versions one that follows the concept of this mod and a
