Summary

Updates mass reporting for FLOPS-based mass to conform to SAWE RP-8 standard.
Some mass variables have been renamed to comply with the standard, and the FLOPS-based mass summation component was reworked to group masses appropriately.

Generative AI was used to write a new test that checks matching between hierarchy variable names and string representation (test_var_structure.py). The Cursor IDE was used, which does not expose which specific models it uses. Manual review and minor tweaks were done by hand.
