Workspace Method spectral_radiance_fieldExpandCloudboxField

Description

Uses and expands cloudbox_field to set spectral_radiance_field.

The method demands that cloudbox_field starts at the first pressure
level (i.e. cloudbox_limits[0] is 0). The method copies cloudbox_field
to fill spectral_radiance_field up to the top of the cloudbox.

To fill the remaning part of spectral_radiance_field, clear-sky
calculations are performed largely in the same maner as done by
spectral_radiance_fieldClearskyPlaneParallel. That is, clear-sky
calculations are done for the upper part of the atmosphere, assuming
a flat planet.

Note that the cloud box constitutes the lower boundary for the later
calculations, and iy_cloudbox_agenda must be set to perform an
interpolation of the cloudbox field.
