Why are variables of different units being added. There should be a variable for total synchrotron radiation power

didn't notice that before, looks like the synchrotron had been missing from the calculation for a while.

Maybe @chris-ashe can comment but is this variable in keeping with the style guide for variable names?
Description
Closes #3534. I have moved Hstar calculation out of
outplas(). I propose keeping the assumption that Hstar is computed with the IPB-98y2 scaling, as the way we currently calculated the energy confinement scaling means while possible there isn't an elegant solution.Checklist
I confirm that I have completed the following checks:
