Need to use NLDAS-2 netCDF-4 format data as LIS metforcing

Later on during summer 2024, the NLDAS-2 GRIB-1 data will no longer be updated daily and distributed by the NASA GES DISC.

Only the NLDAS-2 netCDF-4 format data will continue to be produced.

It's a high-priority to have a LIS metforcing reader that is able to use the NLDAS-2 netCDF-4 format data.

This new metforcing reader should have near-identical output to the current NLDAS-2 GRIB-1 metforcing reader.
