Parameter setting for down-scaled MAM #59

I made a few corrections and small changes. Take a look in general and see if you agree.
I included the "g" and "rate_ext" variables in the table in case we will keep them as parameters to tune. I suggested a change to the section 1.2 title. See if it fits better this way.

I would suggest moving this module to S2 so that tuning parameters for users would stand out. And this 1.2 could be changed to 2.1 and titled Configuring model parameters.

I agree, it is a good idea. Could you make this change?

Yes, let's make this happen for the next PR when cleaning the code and only focus on the parameter setting and documentation.

This PR sets the "optimal" values for the parameters exposed to users when simulating down-scaled MAM to reproduce spiking activities from full-scale MAM as much as possible. The values are decided from the results of simulation in terms of mainly mean firing rate for both ground state and metastable state.
Besides, the notebook now sets metastable state as default simulating state (
cc_weights_factor = 1.9).
