[Feature Req.] Redshift dependency in parameters of MASS_DEPENDENT_ZETA #537

Description

@zhaotingchen

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

As part of discussion with @andreimesinger, I am trying to combine the likelihood of Qin et al. @qyx268 with a CMB+BAO likelihood without the Planck tau prior.

I was told that this is implemented in this branch.
After checking the code, I realised it probably makes little sense for me to continue to modify an old version since the source code has changed significantly. Instead it would be nicer to add this to the current v4.

Describe the solution you'd like

Redshift dependence in parameters such as BETA_ESC10, BETA_ESC7, BETA_STAR10 that adds redshift dependence to the escape fraction calculation of halos (Eq.2 in 2412.00799)

Describe alternatives you've considered

Maybe this can be done by manually modifying the input parameters at each coeval level for each node redshift, but I think the natural solution should be to add input parameters.

Additional context

I have some attempt at doing this, with a very naive verification.
Now it is just for BETA_ESC.
The big problem here I think is that I don't really understand the photon conservation and how it's done at the code level. Some help is appreciated in helping me check this.
