This large PR adds the new capability for multi-resolution incremental 4DVar.

TYPE: new feature

KEYWORDS: MRI-4DVar, Inverse transform, square root of B, 3-stage

SOURCE: Zhiquan (Jake) Liu, Junmei Ban, Jamie Bresch, Yali Wu, Xin Zhang, Jianyu Liu (NCAR/MMM)

DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES:
Existing 4DVar algorithm is run at the same model resolution for inner loop minimization of different outer loops (default namelist setting with multi_inc=0). This adds MRI-4DVar capability that can run 4DVar at lower resolution for inner loop minimization with a 3-stage procedure (observer, minimizer, regridder) as described by Liu et al. (2020) and can substantially speed up 4DVar. Three major changes include:

3-stage procedure controlled by a script and offline programs under ~var/mri4dvar;
Set multi_inc=1 for the "observer" step and multi_inc=2 for the "minimizer" step. The "regridder' step is done using the offline programs.

Inverse transform of square root B introduced under ~var/da/da_vtox_transforms;
New namelist parameter use_inverse_squarerootb needs to be set .true. when multi_inc=2 and works together with cv_options=5, 6, or 7 and cloud_cv_options=2 or 3.

New namelist parameter use_interpolate_cvt=.false. (default), which is supposed to work together with the obsolete cv_options=3, which is not recommended to use for non-expert users.

Additional file I/O for control variable and radar/radiance OMB files from the observer step. This I/O part will need some further code clean-up and improvement in the future.
