Workspace Method CloudboxGetIncoming

Description

Calculates incoming radiation field of the cloudbox by repeated
radiative transfer calculations.

The method performs monochromatic pencil beam calculations for
all grid positions on the cloudbox boundary, and all directions
given by scattering angle grids (*scat_za/aa_grid*). Found radiances
are stored in *scat_i_p/lat/lon* which can be used as boundary
conditions when scattering inside the cloud box is solved by the
DOIT method.
