add make_salt_sfc_restore.py

Adds https://github.com/COSIMA/access-om2/blob/2911891/tools/make_salt_sfc_restore.py

This needs some tweaks to meet the requirements of the README, particularly adding provenance metadata. @ezhilsabareesh8 would you have time to do that before we merge this PR?

From the metadata it looks like this was also needed. We should include it in the script so it's a one-step process.

Oops, converting to draft. I'm not sure this is a good way to go, since this script also needs a lot of other code from https://github.com/COSIMA/access-om2/blob/master/tools. Do we want all that here as well?

@ezhilsabareesh8 would you have time to do that before we merge this PR?

@aekiss Yes I can do that, also there are some dependencies required for make_salt_sfc_restore.py, for example make_remap_weights.py, which also needs to be included if we move make_salt_sfc_restore.py to om3-scripts.
