Add code for tracking the minimum daily beta factor (btran), ELM
The proposed pull request adds the minimum daily beta factor (BTRANMN), using the same code as CLM5. In this pull request, BTRANMN is just a diagnostic variable, though one that is more sensitive to water stress than the regular daily/monthly averages of BTRAN. In the future, this variable may be used for drought deciduous phenology in FATES, and this variable is a candidate for the environmental driver controlling the abscission and flushing times.
