feature request: program to remove obs above a given CAM model level from an obs_seq file #459

Feature request from pull ##422 submitted by Nancy The discusion of various obs removal methods is in #415

"Adds a new program to remove obs above a given CAM model level from an obs_seq file. This program takes a single obs_seq file in and writes a single obs_seq file out without the high obs. In the future it could also superob dense obs, change obs errors near the surface, or any other CAM-specific processing that might be needed.

It can either be added to the cam workflow scripts, or a month of obs files could be run offline ahead of time and then the cam scripts can read in the updated files instead of the originals."
