Almost ready to merge. See list below

Feature or improvement description
The recommendation for wake added turbulence (WAT) is to rescale by default. The code and test cases were setup with a default for WAT_Scalebox = .false.. This PR changes this default to .true.. Without the rescaling, cases were occasionally appearing where the velocity from the WAT was causing wakes to propagate in the negative direction.

Related issue, if one exists
N/A

Impacted areas of the software
This affects the wake added turbulence in FAST.Farm only.

Additional supporting information
