Explicit Telecommute Software

[i-am-sijia]

This pull request adds two new model components to the ActivitySim ABM: telework_arrangement and telework_duration. These components enable the simulation of whether a worker teleworks (telecommute or work from home) on a given day and, if so, for how long. The changes also update the settings checker and model initialization to support these new components.

New telework modeling components:

• Added the telework_arrangement model (telework_arrangement.py), which predicts for each worker whether they have in-home telework activity on the simulation day and annotates the persons table with a has_in_home_work_activity column.
• Added the telework_duration model (telework_duration.py), which simulates the duration of in-home work for workers identified as teleworking, supporting both probabilistic and MNL choice models, and annotates the persons table with telework_duration_category and telework_duration_hours columns.

Integration and configuration updates:

• Registered the new telework_arrangement and telework_duration components in the model initialization file (__init__.py).
• Updated the settings checker (settings_checker.py) to recognize and validate settings for the new telework components, including their settings classes and YAML configuration files.
