Resolves #859

Two updates for GOES AMV

1. BUFR Converter:
- remove wind direction and speed
- change sensorZenithAngle to satelliteZenithAngle
2. 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:
```

The UFO filter results vs. GSI  -- looks good

Rather than each new ob type being manually added to the list, we can
use `glob.glob` to get the list of available observation types.
)

Two updates for MetOp SCATWIND; one minor updates for GOES AMV 

1. BUFR Converter:
    - remove wind direction and speed
    - add `stationElevation` as zero 

2. UFO Filters:
    - 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.
- add `Gaussian Thinning` filter to thin data with 75 km box (equal box
size, prefer data close to central of the box)

3. For GOES AMV YAML files, change output data extension from `nc4` to
`nc`

UFO vs. GSI O-F and QC comparison: O-F and data count passed look close

3Dvar increments are reasonable with MetOp-B SCATWIND alone.

3DVar increments are also reasonable with MetOp-B + MetOp-A assimilated
…oda.x (NOAA-EMC#730)

This PR allows for all obtypes to be processed in two loops.

We still need to figure out a way to process these in parallel
(somewhat).
Using python multiprocessing to generate obs in parallel. The current
list of obs goes from 10+ minutes to completing in ~5.5 minutes.
@RussTreadon-NOAA noted that `obs linear operator` should be `linear obs
operator` in the GOES-17 satwind YAML. This fixes that.
This reduces runtime further to run everything in one parallel pool.
Now, things complete in under 4 minutes (as of now).
…A-EMC#746)

Adding satwinds from the Advanced Himawari Imager (AHI) from Himawari-8
to GDASApp end-to-end testing

new files include:
parm/atm/obs/config/satwind_ahi_h8.yaml: QC filter YAML for AHI
Himawari-8 satwinds
parm/ioda/bufr2ioda/bufr2ioda_satwind_amv_ahi.json: JSON containing data
format, sensor, and satellite information for AHI Himawari-8 satwinds

extracting AHI Himawari-8 satwinds from BUFR

modified files include:
ush/ioda/bufr2ioda/run_bufr2ioda.py: added `"satwind_amv_ahi"` to list
`BUFR_py`

See NOAA-EMC#741 for details on testing. JEDI/GSI comparisons look good with GSI
thinning turned off, but there are large ob-count disparities both
before and after QC when comparing GSI+thinning to JEDI+thinning. The
tested `Gaussian Thinning` filter is included in the YAML but commented
out with a note.

Updating GNSSRO converter and adding the yaml file to GDASApp end-to-end
testing based on [NOAA-EMC#712](NOAA-EMC#712).

New file:
parm/atm/obs/config/gnssro.yaml: Added QC filters in the YAML

Updated files:
parm/ioda/bufr2ioda/bufr2ioda_gnssro_bufr.json: Updated the satellite
information

Refer to [issue NOAA-EMC#750](NOAA-EMC#750)
for testing details. JEDI/GSI comparisons revealed a cutoff near
obs=0.03 Rad due to super refraction 2. The number of observations after
QC in JEDI is also inconsistent with GSI.
List of items to be added in this PR:
- BUFR Converter: Add YAML for converting ATMS BUFR to IODA
   - The ObsValue is antenna temperature
   - Input BUFR is normal feel 

- Testing YAML: re-evaluation results due to update CRTM from v2.3.0 to
v2.4.1-jedi.1

- Paring PR in JCSDA UFO repository
- This PR also has a [paring PR in JCSDA UFO
repository](JCSDA-internal/ufo#3094).
   - It is OK to merge this one into GDASApp before the paring UFO PR
- The related test data (obs and geoval files from GSI) for UFO
Evaluation have been updated (due to CRTM-2.4.1 update) on ORION and
HERA.


Notes:
- End-to-end testing completed without problem. 
- However, the filter results show one of the filters, 88-165 GHz
scattering index check, tossed more data compared to GSI.
- The excess screening from the 88-165 GHz scattering index check is
under investigation and will be reported separately.
- Please check comments below for validation results
…o-end testing (NOAA-EMC#764)

Adding satwinds from the Spinning Enhanced Visible and InfraRed Imager

METEOSAT-8 satwinds
parm/ioda/bufr2ioda/bufr2ioda_satwind_amv_seviri.json: JSON containing

is provided in YAML but turned off due to irreconcilable differences
with GSI in testing.

)

Small code-change to include SEVIRI/METEOSAT-11 satwinds in end-to-end
validation. This uses the hook-ins already provided by the
SEVIRI/METEOSAT-8 satwinds code that was merged in
NOAA-EMC#764.

New file: parm/atm/obs/config/satwind_seviri_m11.yaml - this is nearly a
direct copy of parm/atm/obs/config/satwind_seviri_m8.yaml, since they
utilize the same filters. Only the header information has changed.

Modified file: parm/ioda/bufr2ioda/bufr2ioda_satwind_amv_seviri.json -
METEOSAT-11 was added to the `satellite_info` group

End-to-end testing looks very similar to what was seen for
SEVIRI/METEOSAT-8 satwinds, detailed in
NOAA-EMC#758. A brief run-down:

(LW)IR winds are in QC agreement down to a 0.02% difference
(cloud-top)WV winds are in QC agreement down to a 0.20% difference
VIS winds differ by 4.5%, but there are only 22 accepted winds in GSI
and 23 in JEDI, the difference is a single satwind

All ob, HofX, and ob-minus-HofX differences look good

In [ previous PR](NOAA-EMC#757) for
ATMS, the end-to-end testing was done without data thinning. And the
excessive QC filtering in clear-sky areas, compared to GSI, was found.
(See
[plots](NOAA-EMC#757 (comment)))

This PR includes two fixes for ATMS in the end-to-end testing and one
new feature:
1. fix the excess QC filtering in clear-sky areas. ---> This has a
paring [UFO PR #3122](JCSDA-internal/ufo#3122)
2. add data thinning 
3. add the diagnostic flags (QC) --- **This can [reproduce QC
flags](NOAA-EMC#768 (comment))
from GSI in UFO**

This PR includes the following:
1. YAML name change - add sensor (ABI) to the filename of observation
YAML for SATWIND from GOES platforms
2. YAML name change - add sensor (ASCAT) to the filename of observation
YAML for SCATWIND from MetOp platforms
3. update the YAML name changes in the list for 3dvar 
4. Add `CO2` in obs forward operator and add `linear obs operator`
without CO2 for ATMS

These changes have no impact on 3DVar results.

This PR includes the following updates for conventional surface pressure
1. Add observation YAML under configuration
2. Update observation YAML under testing
