Describe your changes

This change implements a method for constraining model output to a specified valid range. This is useful to ensure reliable model output for variables the cannot physically fall outside of this range - such as absolute temperature which must be positive or relative humidity which must be between 0 and 100%.

This is implemented by using the config.yaml for specifying valid ranges for each parameter, where each variable defaults to not having a limit. A scaled sigmoid function is then applied to the prediction for variables that have both an upper and lower limit, and a scaled softplus is used for variables that must be above or below a certain threshold.
