Add missing EK80 Beam_group variables #1094

Closed emiliom closed 1 year ago

Addresses #951

Note: flag_values and flag_meanings are CF attributes used with variables whose values are codes ("flags") that stand for specific meanings. We could stuff all that information in a comment attribute instead, but since CF already accommodates this specific situation, let's use the flag attributes.

Also added a long_name attribute to the slope variable, based on https://github.com/OSOceanAcoustics/echopype/issues/951#issuecomment-1652398704

Great to learn about these!
