Hybrids Depreciation Allocation defaults do not match other models

[brtietz]

Hybrids depreciation defaults as of the release candidate for 2023-12-17-r2:

As compared to PVWatts-Single Owner:

Consider updating to match. (PV-Battery-Fuel cell matches the other hybrids)

Additional consideration: anything with "generic system" probably shouldn't have assets qualify. Consider if this case should have different default allocations.

The default allocations are based on a utility-scale PV system (based on work done in 2011). I'm not sure if they would be appropriate for a hybrid system or other types of systems. Assuming 100% 5-yr MACRS allocation is a simplification, but may be appropriate when more information is not available.

My other concern is that the ITC qualification box is unchecked in a case where there are eligible assets. Perhaps the fix is just to check the ITC box?

Consolidated in #1855
