`cell_diffusion_timescale` is not defined for `CATKEVerticalDiffusivity` #3772

Based on

https://github.com/CliMA/Oceananigans.jl/blob/2e4ba6b36bf012d5dcb89ddc7160a10f774aadbe/src/TurbulenceClosures/turbulence_closure_diagnostics.jl#L67-L69

CATKE should also have an infinite cell diffusion timescale with the default implicit time discretization.

When CATKE is run with explicit time discretization I suppose the cell diffusion timescale should be computed from the maximum viscosity/diffusivity in model.diffusivity_fields.

Happy to add these cell_diffusion_timescale methods.

I know CATKEVerticalDiffusivity is not exported so I'm just opening the issue to document.

MWE:

using Oceananigans
using Oceananigans.TurbulenceClosures: CATKEVerticalDiffusivity

grid = RectilinearGrid(size=(12, 12, 12), extent=(1, 1, 1))
closure = CATKEVerticalDiffusivity()
buoyancy = SeawaterBuoyancy()
tracers = (:T, :S, :e)

model = HydrostaticFreeSurfaceModel(; grid, closure, buoyancy, tracers)

DiffusiveCFL(1.23)(model)

Honestly, I hadn't considered trying to run CATKE with explicit time-stepping! Yes, this is good to add.
