Support for missing data in NodeFileEditor #32

HighResMIP data I'm using has fill values (which are documented in the file metadata) in the low-level wind fields where there is high topography. When a TC is close to this high topography, the fill values are being used in the calculation of the radial wind profile, and since the fill values are really large numbers (1e20), they are messing up the calculation of r8. NodeFileEditor needs a --missingdata argument like Climatology has.
