The softness factor in the Glen-Paterson-Budd-Lliboutry-Duval flow law. For constitutive law form.

This is a modification of Glen-Paterson-Budd ice, which is PatersonBudd. In particular, if \(A()\) is the softness factor for PatersonBudd, if \(E\) is the enthalpy, and \(p\) is the pressure then the softness we compute is

\[A = A(T_{pa}(E, p))(1+184\omega).\]

The pressure-melting temperature \(T_{pa}(E, p)\) is computed by pressure_adjusted_temperature().

Implements pism::rheology::FlowLaw.
