[ilianagenkova]

@AshleyStanfield-NOAA @ilianagenkova continued development of BUFR2IODA conversion for Satellite AMVs, using feature/query automatic dimensions query code (a branch under https://github.com/JCSDA-internal/ioda-converters).

Progress was made on the YAML file, the challenge being handling two-dimensional data. /scratch1/NCEPDEV/da/Ashley.Stanfield/feat_query/yaml_test/SatWnd_Old_NC005604.yaml
