This PR merges in updates for obsproc/v1.2 (from the release/gfs.v16.3.15 branch) and an update to scripts/exgdas_atmos_analysis_wdqms.sh error handling per discussion with NCO (SPA Simon).

@emilyhcliu FYI about additional script error handling update. SPA Simon requested this final edit to conform with NCO error handling standards. He approved of your prior updates, so this should be the last script update.

@KateFriedman-NOAA The use of ObsProc v1.2 in the global workflow causes issues in WDQMS processing for radiosonde data. ObsProc v1.2 includes high-resolution radiosonde data. At some stations, multiple observations for the same location (lat, long, pressure) and time are made, which contains mostly bad data and causes problems in WDQMS processing.

The issue I described above does not occur for ObsProc v1.1. We are working on a solution for WDQMS to handle the issue. Therefore, this will not be the final cut to NCO.

@emilyhcliu Understood, thanks for those details! I had a feeling this wouldn't be the end lol :)
