Create a dashboard.yml file for all plots for the current project/scenario

The purpose of this notebook is to create a dashboard.yml file in the {general:project} folder that has a dashboard for each category of plots and inside that dashboard, one plot for each plot in that category. We use the row-layout for the dashboards.
