Description

From #3823 we have found that the superconducting tests are not comprehensive. Only i_tf_superconductor = 5 is tested. There has also been a lot of duplication found, eg in #3823 we found that there was duplication in the paramterised SuperconParam instances used in the test for supercon.
Also found this error

in superconducting_tf_coil.py where an argument was typed wrong, but since it wasn't being tested (this is called only in i_tf_superconductor = 3) this wasn't picked up on the CI.

The tests need to be redone so that all instances of i_tf_superconductor are being tested and to ensure all the parameterised variables are being used.
