Add standalone build config for gadi supercomputer

I can't see if/how I made this fail in the CI tests:

Run cd $HOME/cice
  cd $HOME/cice
  ./cice.setup -m conda -e macos --test unittest --pes 2x1 -s helloworld --testid hw01
  cd *helloworld*hw01
  ./cice.build
  ./cice.run
  shell: /bin/csh -e {0}

./cice.setup:
./cice.setup: ERROR in tsfile, this should never happen
Error: Process completed with exit code 255.

I think github actions changed again and it's broken. UGH!!!

See also https://github.com/apcraig/CICE/actions/runs/8912669968/job/24476572429 which is just running the current CICE main (but off my fork). Will try to do some debugging.

[apcraig]

Please merge/rebase from the current main head. GHActions should be working again.

[apcraig]

Github Actions is working again. But this PR now shows the changes associated with the merge. I think we prefer not to see those. Did you rebase? Any chance you could fix that? Another option is to create a new branch off Consortium main, merge this branches changes onto the new branch, and create a new PR. Let me know if that makes sense. Maybe you have a more clever way to handle this.

[anton-seaice]

Thanks Tony - yes operator error. Ill fix

[anton-seaice]

It looks like we might have an intermittent bug in the CI:

https://github.com/ACCESS-NRI/CICE/actions/runs/8916589708 passed and https://github.com/CICE-Consortium/CICE/actions/runs/8916589961/job/24488267484 failed on the same commit !

Anyway, I made the change suggested and it passed this time (but I can't see how its related). Don't merge yet, ill have a go tomorrow at setting a more meaningful value for _ICE_MACHINEENVINFO

[anton-seaice]

This should be ready to merge @apcraig :)
