Finalize YAML File

[nickjtch]

Finalize the structure of the YAML file that will be used to configure the equipment:

# Example YAML file for a 1000-cycle 1C/1C CCCV cycling experiment for a 5 Ah cell with an RPT every 100 cycles

# Global parameters to take precedent over any cycling instructions

globals:
