Enumeration for surface azimuth

### Information

Enumeration to define the azimuth of a surface. For example, if an exterior wall is South oriented, i.e., its outside-facing surface is towards South, use `Buildings.Types.Azimuth.S`.

Extends from Modelica.Icons.TypesPackage (Icon for packages containing type definitions).

### Package Content

Name | Description
--- | ---
E=-Modelica.Constants.pi/2 | Azimuth for an exterior wall whose outer surface faces east
N=Modelica.Constants.pi | Azimuth for an exterior wall whose outer surface faces north
S=0 | Azimuth for an exterior wall whose outer surface faces south
W=+Modelica.Constants.pi/2 | Azimuth for an exterior wall whose outer surface faces west

### Types and constants
