Description
The function add_carbon_capture(data, tech_data) should be better integrated into the other code for processing DEA assumptions. The current way it is implemented is a hack, since it has to read in the electricity and heat inputs and outputs and capture rates, which aren't required for other technologies.

Research direction
Start by reading the implementation and call sites of add_carbon_capture(data, tech_data), then review the discussion in PR #20 for the intended integration. Trace how other technologies process DEA assumptions and identify how carbon capture can follow that path without requiring its technology-specific electricity, heat, and capture-rate inputs. Done means the function is integrated without the current special-case hack.
