Cleanup Deprecations

[dallan-keylogic]

Summary/Motivation:

There is no prospect of a 3.0.0 version of IDAES in the foreseeable future. Therefore, we should change deprecations that were supposed to happen in 3.0.0 to instead happen in 2.14.0.

Changes proposed in this PR:

• Change deprecations from 3.0.0 to 2.14.0
• Add hard cast to float for old scaling tools to catch garbage input.

We can ignore CodeCov here---it's flagging the deprecated property as uncovered, but that's because it's deprecated and we're not using it anymore.

What is v supposed to be?

[dallan-keylogic]

The scaling factor. This is in the old tools, I tried to use more descriptive variable names in the new tools.

[bpaul4]

But why do we need to cast it to a float? I'd expect it to either already be one, or fail at some point because it's not in which case we should catch it and have a custom error message.

[dallan-keylogic]

Pyomo Suffixes allow pretty much anything as values. I've ended up assigning a Pyomo Var or Expression as a scaling factor before due to errors in my code. What happens is that set_scaling_factor allows it to be put on the Suffix, but then an error gets raised when it comes time to write the .nl file. This later error is hard to trace back to the original point where the mistake was made.
