Two updates for GOES AMV

  1. BUFR Converter:
  • remove wind direction and speed
  • change sensorZenithAngle to satelliteZenithAngle
  1. UFO Filters:
  • change sensorZenithAngle to satelliteZenithAngle
  • add linear obs operator section
    The declaration of `linear obs operator" is necessary for GOES AMV since there is no linearized component for applying the 10-meter factor.

The increments look reasonable:

0: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  0: Increment print | number of fields = 8 | cube sphere face size: C768

The UFO filter results vs. GSI -- looks good
