Gridlabd Credentials needs to support local files

[Thistleman]

Problem description

nsrdb weather currently uses credentials in a hard-coded path to $home/.nsrdb/credentials.json

This causes issues when trying to utilize historical data on the weather pipeline through OpenFIDO. The credentials are provided locally, and therefore are not used and cause historical data calls to fail.

Steps to reproduce

1. Go to 'app.openfido.com'
2. Click on 'add pipeline'
3. Select 'weather' from the dropdown
4. Change the branch to develop
5. Select the 'weather' pipeline
6. Copy nsrdb credentials.json to pipeline
7. Set the year to '2020' in the config.csv, and start new run with the rest as default settings
8. Select 'Console Output', then select Standard Error, and scroll to the bottom
9. See error for no data

Expected behavior

The local credential files should be used, and the weather call should retrieve historical data if requested.

System information

• GridLAB-D version: all
• Operating system: all

Supporting information

The path reference is hard-coded.
