Integrated view factors from the shaded and unshaded parts of
the row slant height to the sky.

Parameters
----------
f_x : numeric
Fraction of row slant height from the bottom that is shaded from
direct irradiance. [unitless]
surface_tilt : numeric
Surface tilt angle in degrees from horizontal, e.g., surface facing up
= 0, surface facing horizon = 90. [degree]
gcr : float
Ratio of row slant length to row spacing (pitch). [unitless]
npoints : int, default 100
Number of points for integration. [unitless]

A detailed calculation would be

dhi * (f_x * vf_shade_sky_integ + (1 - f_x) * vf_noshade_sky_integ)
