Workspace Method DisortCalcClearsky

Description

Interface to DISORT for running clear-sky cases.

The method runs DISORT with pnd_field set to zero.

Note that this version returns spectral_radiance_field, i.e.
the solution for the full atmosphere. The standard DisortCalc
only returns the field inside the cloudbox.
