Allow Sizing:System objects to be removed from model #5601

General Summary

Allow Sizing:System objects to be removed from the model. It is confusing to have these objects in the model when they are not used.

Detailed Description

Sizing:System objects are not required by EnergyPlus, and we do not use them for our residential simulations. However, OpenStudio does not allow these objects to be removed. If you try air_loop.sizingSystem.remove, you hit this error here.

Likewise, it'd be nice if the Sizing:Parameters object could be removed. (It's also strange than the default heating/cooling sizing factors are 1.25/1.1 and differ from the E+ IDD defaults of 1.0/1.0. If the defaults were the same, OS would not have to create/FT this object unless a user wanted to change from the defaults.)
