Missing height 2m coordinate in KIOST-EMS

[Karen-A-Garcia]

There is an issue with the 2m height coordinate in the kiost-esm historical model with the tasmin and tasmax variables. Here is the error message for tasmin for example:

esmvalcore.cmor.check.CMORCheckError: There were errors in variable tasmin:
 height2m: does not exist
