Reverse polarity of reactive power #222

Description

@tiyash-basu-frequenz

What's needed?

Currently, this is our reactive power polarity scheme:

// The output reactive power level, in VAr.
// -ve values are for inductive (lagging) power , and +ve values are for
// capacitive (leading) power.

However, in IEEE standards document, lagging power is +ve, and leading is -ve, which is the opposite of ours. Since this is widely popular, we should move to this sign convention.
