wgrib2 is still pinned to 2.0.8, but on several systems, we have to install newer versions (Hercules, Nautilus, Orion) because the old version doesn't build.
@DavidHuber-NOAA said that 3.1.1 seems to work fine in the global workflow on Hercules, so let's update to that version across the board for the 1.8.0 release (and remove the site-specific config entries).
However, a brand new wgrib2 featuring a 21st century cmake build is currently being tested. If that is greenlighted before we freeze the 1.8.0 code, we should consider updating to that version.
