Workspace Method AbsInputFromRteScalars

Description

Initialize absorption input WSVs from local atmospheric conditions.

The purpose of this method is to allow an explicit line-by-line
calculation, e.g., by abs_coefCalc, to be put inside the
abs_scalar_gas_agenda. What the method does is to prepare absorption
input parameters (pressure, temperature, VMRs), from the input
parameters to abs_scalar_gas_agenda.  There is a matching method to
turn the output of abs_coefCalc into what the agenda expects
(abs_scalar_gasFromAbsCoef).
