Feature/eckit geo

[pmaciel]

This is an integration of the eckit::geo grids and iterators into eccodes. This needs to be switched at configuration time with both:

• CMake variables ENABLE_GEOGRAPHY=ON and ENABLE_ECKIT_GEO=ON (configuration time), and
• env variable ECCODES_ECKIT_GEO=1 (runtime)

in which case any request for a eccodes "geo iterator" will create a eckit::geo:Grid and iterate from it -- that is, there only one eckit::geo-based iterator, which should support all GRIB grids.

This version already supports the corrections to known GRIB problems from a yaml, and some other corrections hardcodes, as fixed in mir (the "GribSpec" class is imported from MIR's "GribInput").

Also, note that not all grids are supported or tested just yet, though the regular_ll, regular_gg, reduced_gg, HEALPix, and similar should work minus some fixes. The projection-based grids not so, there's no link to the "ProjectionSpec" yet.

I've changed the code to minimise the intrusion in the original code. The building of eckit::geo-based iterators is now placed at the earliest possible call.

[pmaciel]

Before anyone asks (!) the change in grib_tools.cc is to call eckit::Main::initialise, a requirement, compiled out in case of disabled feature. It also supports puture packing from eckit (when that happens.)

We won't need to call:
eckit::Main::initialise(argc, argv);
in the tools. As the tools will not need to change.
We are only changing the implementation of the src/geo_iterators

We won't need to call: eckit::Main::initialise(argc, argv); in the tools. As the tools will not need to change. We are only changing the implementation of the src/geo_iterators

This is a requirement on using eckit, and is part of its design. Main holds a singleton to access command-line options, and "resources" (specially formatted arguments and environment variables), and is responsible for initialising low-level infrastructure like logging channels. The natural place for it to be is right next to the main() function, hence the change.

But well pointed, I added an initialisation if you trigger the eckit::geo functionality not from a tool that it will do a blng initialisation (ie. initialise eckit, regardless.) We don't have a use for that just yet, but will soon.

[pmaciel]

Note that this version already supports ORCA and FESOM grids (!), among other functionality that is difficult to check at the moment, so I can call grib_get_data on a GRIB and it will download the necessary files and run properly.

This test did not work for me, so I pushed some changes, which now makes the detection of eckit and test of options work for me. Have a look and see what you think!
