introduces wave forcing for sediment transport and the Tidal inlet test case (Warner et al., 2008) was developed to test the seabed evolution in the presence of waves and tides.

Uses radiation stresses following fragkouan/thetis_wci (Fragkou et al., 2024) and similarly, other fields, such as Hs, Ub, T, wave dir, and freq. were introduced and adopted in sediment transport model, although only orbital velocities are accounted for in bottom stresses computation, further integration would be necessary to advance the model complexity.

…2) tidal inlet test case in examples. 3) introduction of wave_forcing option for sediments and van Rijn bedload formulation.
…ad of a soft linke. removed comments from unnecessary sediment_model.py
…nsport model on an tidal inlet domain) into tidalinlet-wave-forcing
…(reduced. WW3 instruction to be added) file; removed dependencies on xarray, meshio and pyvista; removed the coupled iteration in solver2d - as unnecessary for the forcing functionality - must be integrated through coupling branch
