a freshwater flux should add / remove volume so it is added as a forcing in the \eta equation. This is possible to have only when we have a free-surface following vertical discretization.

The salt fluxes change their interpretation in this case, they are no more virtual fluxes but corrections that account for the incoming / outgoing salt in the added / removed volume. Since rain and runoff have $S = 0$ the correction stays $F * S_o$ (Should be $F * (S_o - S_i)$.

Depends on CliMA/Oceananigans.jl#5592
