Need to replace with equations based on UEF. @jmaguire1

Need to double-check that I implemented this correctly. Was seeing an E+ warning about COP curve not 1 at nominal conditions.

@jmaguire1 I'm pretty sure I implemented the curves correctly. See 120V dedicated here and 120V shared here. Both give E+ warnings that the curves evaluate to ~0.8 at rated conditions.

- Assuming mixing valve if 120V HPWH (@jmaguire1 will double check).
- Default mixing valve setpoint at min(125.0, t_set).
- MixingValueSetpoint must be < WHsetpoint and >= 105F
- Warning that target temp > hot water temp is okay to ignore.
