Example 9: Compare farm power with neighboring farm

"""Example 9: Compare farm power with neighboring farm

This example demonstrates how to use turbine_weights to define a set of turbines belonging
to a neighboring farm which impacts the power production of the farm under consideration
via wake losses, but whose own power production is not considered in farm power / aep production
