Workspace Method pnd_fieldZero

Description

Sets pnd_field to hold only zeros.

Scattering calculations using the DOIT method include
interpolation errors. If one is interested in this effect, one
should compare the DOIT result with a clearsky calculation using
an empty cloudbox. That means that the iterative method is
performed for a cloudbox including no particles. This method sets
the particle number density field to zero and creates a
dummy scat_data_array structure.
