ref_carrier is added in Pref conveys the reference channel type
information ie the channel that was used for design (would it be
auto-design or for a given design). Other attributes (like
slot_width or roll-off) may be added here for future equalization
types.
Pref object already records the req_power, so let's remove it
from ReferenceCarrier and only use ref_carrier to record info that
will be useful for PSD equalization ie baud_rate.
This reference baud_rate is required to compute reference target power
based on spectral density values during propagation. It is thus required
because of on-the-fly evaluation of loss for p_span_i and for printing
loss and target power of ROADM during propagation.

This change enables to use a different tx_osnr per carrier.
If tx_osnr is defined via spectrum then use it to define a tx_osnr per
carrier in si else use the tx_osnr of request to set tx_osnr of si.
Then, the propagate function for requests is changed to update OSNR with
tx_OSNR per carrier defined in si.
TODO: The tx_osnr defined in spectrum is not yet taken into account for
the propagate_and_optimize function, because the loop that optimizes
the choice for the mode only loops on baudrate.

The idea behind this change is to reproduce the exact same behaviour as
with the scalar, but accounting for variable levels of powers.
- delete the neq_ch: equivalent channel count in dB because with mixed
rates and power such a value has limited utility
- instead creates a vector that records the 'user defined' distribution
of power.
This vector is used as a reference for channel equalization out of the
ROADM. If target_power_per_channel has some channels power above
input power, then the whole target is reduced.
For example, if user specifies delta_pdb_per_channel:
freq1: 1dB, freq2: 3dB, freq3: -3dB, and target is -20dBm out of the
ROADM, then the target power for each channel uses the specified
delta_pdb_per_channel.
target_power_per_channel[f1, f2, f3] = -19, -17, -23
However if input_signal = -23, -16, -26, then the target can not be
applied, because -23 < -19dBm and -26 < -23dBm, and a reduction must be
applied (ROADM can not amplify).
Then the target is only applied to signals whose power is above the
threshold. others are left unchanged and unequalized.
the new target is [-23, -17, -26]
and the attenuation to apply is [-23, -16, -26] - [-23, -17, -26] = [0, 1, 0]
Important note:
This changes the previous behaviour that equalized all identical channels
based on the one that had the min power !!
TODO: in coming refactor where transmission and design will be properly
separated, the initial behaviour may be set again as a design choice.
This change corresponds to a discussion held during coders call. Please look at this document for
a reference: https://telecominfraproject.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/OOPT/pages/669679645/PSE+Meeting+Minutes
- in amplifier: the saturation is computed based on this vector
delta_pdb_per_channel, instead of the nb of channels.
The target of the future refactor will be to use the effective
carrier's power. I prefer to have this first step, because this is
how it is implemented today (ie based on the noiseless reference),
and I would like first to add more behaviour tests before doing
this refactor (would it be needed).
- in spectralInfo class, change pref to a Pref object to enable both
p_span0 and p_spani to be conveyed during propagation of
spectral_information in elements. No refactor of them at this point.
