Description
We need to check the contents of the surface dictionaries to make sure they contain all the necessary info for relevant analyses.
For example, we need thickness_cp in there if we're doing aerostructural, etc.
Not sure the best place to perform this check, maybe in the geometry group since it's the first one called.

Research direction
Start by reading the geometry group and tracing where the surface dictionaries are first consumed. Identify the required contents for each relevant analysis, including thickness_cp for aerostructural cases, then add validation that reports missing information before later errors occur.
