Feature or improvement description
The LiDAR sub-module inside InflowWind requires turbine specific information such as hub location. However, this information is not available at the FAST.Farm level instance of InflowWind. This was resulting in segmentation faults when someone attempted to use it at this level.
This PR disables the LiDAR submodule from use with the InflowWind module used at the FAST.Farm level.

Impacted areas of the software
InflowWind module at the FAST.Farm level only.
Additional supporting information
A few users have attempted to use the LiDAR sub-module at the FAST.Farm level and received segmentation faults. Since this is not something the code can really do, we are simply disabling it for now.
