E3SM-Project/e3sm_diags: v2.7.0

New Features: Added scatter plots for comparing annual mean long-term Absorption Optical Depth (AOD) Aerosol Absorption Optical Depth (AAOD) at 550 nm from AERONET measurements. Scripts and data contributed by @yfenganl Add cmip6 comparison box whisker plot. Scripts contributed by @golaz Add CMIP6 models + E3SM v1 v2, AMIP and HISTORICAL runs as baseline for box whisker plots and Taylor Diagrams Support Model only analysis in lat-lon set Add lat_lon_land annd lat_lon_river drivers and viewers supported in the main viewer. Integrate in ELM land variable pre-processing and MOSART river variables for lat-lon model vs model default run. (contributed by @darincomeau @jenniferholm and @hydrotian ) Add a standalone script to generate a summary plot of E3SM diagnostics. by @ambrad Included a Metrics checker to check consistency between two lat-lon run. Enhanced Features: Add AODDUST to lat_lon plots (model only) Add Q to zonal_mean_2d plots Add TREFMNAV/tasmin TREFMXAV/tasmax to core set Replace Interim with ERA5 in core sets Update to MACv2 for AOD at 550nm diags Major Fixes: Set regrid method to bilinear for a subset of variables with masks or missing data Fix and Enhancement for Diurnal Cycle of Precipitation Fix extreme values of Albedo from obs values over high latitudes by masking high latitude in lat-lon plot Other Updates: Update DevOps tooling; Update black to fix click ImportError Add xarray and mache to conda env dependencies and remove dask Update input data path; nco invocation in pre-processing Fix FileNotFoundError for log file New Contributors @ambrad made their first contribution in https://github.com/E3SM-Project/e3sm_diags/pull/579 Full Changelog: https://github.com/E3SM-Project/e3sm_diags/compare/v2.6.1...v2.7.
