Describe the update

Use USTAR friction velocity from meteorology instead of calculating from wind at 10m.
Comment out unused codes after this update but keep them following tradition.

Expected changes

Friction velocity is estimated to increase by 3 times. Dust emission is estimated to increase by 30 times, since dust emission is proportional to cube of friction velocity. Therefore, dust scaling factor needs to be recalculated. Following Meng, J.,et al, 2021, global annual dust emission for 2016 is scaled to 2000Tg.

Scaling factor
GEOS-IT: 2.6421e-05
MERRA-2: 3.8891e-05
GEOS-FP: 3.0655e-05

Thanks @yuanjianz. We can merge this pending updating the CHANGELOG.md file.

Also, this PR will need to go into GC 14.5.0 / HEMCO 3.10.0, as this will change the fullchem benchmark simulation results. I've changed the target branch accordingly.
