Throw a CMake error if FAST-JX is used for any mech except Hg

CMakeScripts/GC-ConfigureClassic.cmake - Add an if block to throw a fatal error if the FASTJX compile option is selected for fullchem, custom, or carbon simulations. Fullchem and custom mechanisms use Cloud-J. We still need to use the FAST-JX photolysis scheme with Hg pending input file updates. CHANGELOG.md - Updated accordingly Signed-off-by: Bob Yantosca <[email protected]>
