Spun off from the discussion in #298.

For multifamily buildings, an apartment floor can be a mass floor instead of a frame floor. Some options for handling this in HPXML:

  1. Create a new MassFloor element, at the same level as the FrameFloor element, with inputs specific to mass floors.
  2. Rename the FrameFloor element to Floor and introduce a FloorType child element (similar to Wall/WallType).
  3. Use the Slab element to describe a mass floor? At a minimum, it would need an ExteriorAdjacentTo element.

After much deliberation, we think 2 is the best option.
