Workspace Method psdModifiedGammaMassMeanParticleMass

Description

Modified gamma distribution PSD, with mass content and mean particle
mass (Mmean) as inputs.

"Mean particle mass" is here defined as the mass content divided with
the total number density.

This version of MGD PSD works as psdModifiedGammaMass, but takes
mass content and mean particle mass as first two arguments. This
means that the first and second column of pnd_agenda_input shall
hold mass content and Mmean, respectively. Accordingly, the number
of dependent parameters is two.

These requirements apply to the MGD parameters:
  mu + 1 > 0
  la > 0
  ga > 0
  Mmean must be > 0.
