Allow xarray>2024.03 in environment

[scottyhq]

We're trying to support argopy alongside other packages in the pangeo docker image (https://github.com/pangeo-data/pangeo-docker-images/pull/577)

But v0.1.16 pins xarray to <2024.03 https://github.com/euroargodev/argopy/issues/373#issuecomment-2312421966

My understanding of the linked upstream issue https://github.com/pydata/xarray/issues/8909 is that the ScipyArrayWrapper' object has no attribute 'oindex' error arises for the specific case of overwriting a netCDF file in an environment with scipy installed but without netCDF4... But argopy does list netCDF4 as a dependency. So @gmaze could you please provide a bit more context around where the problem is seen for argopy? Cheers!

thanks for reporting this ! indeed this xarray pinning is not satisfactory

the error was raised in CI tests and later reported by some users that's why we found that a temporary solution was to pin xarray to <2024.03, not really to check on the netCDF4 availability in the environnement, it is a priori there in CI tests

let me double check if I can reproduce the error in an env where I'm sure netCDF4 is available

and we have the next release coming up soon (v0.1.17), surely before the end of September xarray pinning should be removed at this point

I can reproduce the error using the following environnement file:

```yaml name: argopy-xarray-unpinned channels: - conda-forge dependencies: - python = 3.10.14 # CORE: - aiohttp - decorator - erddapy - fsspec - netCDF4 - packaging - requests - scipy - toolz - xarray # EXT.UTIL: - boto3 - gsw - s3fs > 2023.12.12 - tqdm - zarr # EXT.PERF: - dask - distributed - h5netcdf - pyarrow # EXT.PLOT: - IPython - cartopy - ipykernel - ipywidgets - matplotlib - pyproj - seaborn # DEV: - aiofiles - black - bottleneck - cfgrib - cftime - codespell - flake8 - numpy - pandas - pip - pytest - pytest-cov - pytest-env - pytest-localftpserver - setuptools # - sphinx # PIP: - pip: - pytest-reportlog ```

That lead to these librairies:

```python >>> argopy.show_versions() SYSTEM ------ commit: None python: 3.10.14 | packaged by conda-forge | (main, Mar 20 2024, 12:53:34) [Clang 16.0.6 ] python-bits: 64 OS: Darwin OS-release: 21.6.0 machine: x86_64 processor: i386 byteorder: little LC_ALL: en_US.UTF-8 LANG: en_US.UTF-8 LOCALE: en_US.UTF-8 libhdf5: 1.14.3 libnetcdf: 4.9.2 INSTALLED VERSIONS: CORE ------------------------ aiohttp : 3.10.5 argopy : 0.1.16 decorator : 5.1.1 erddapy : 2.2.0 fsspec : 2024.9.0 netCDF4 : 1.7.1 packaging : 24.1 requests : 2.32.3 scipy : 1.14.1 toolz : 0.12.1 xarray : 2024.7.0 INSTALLED VERSIONS: EXT.UTIL ---------------------------- boto3 : 1.35.7 gsw : 3.6.19 s3fs : 2024.9.0 tqdm : 4.66.5 zarr : 2.18.3 INSTALLED VERSIONS: EXT.PERF ---------------------------- dask : 2024.8.2 distributed : 2024.8.2 h5netcdf : 1.3.0 pyarrow : 17.0.0 INSTALLED VERSIONS: EXT.PLOT ---------------------------- IPython : 8.27.0 cartopy : 0.23.0 ipykernel : 6.29.5 ipywidgets : 8.1.5 matplotlib : 3.9.2 pyproj : 3.6.1 seaborn : 0.13.2 INSTALLED VERSIONS: DEV ----------------------- aiofiles : 24.1.0 black : 24.8.0 bottleneck : 1.4.0 cfgrib : 0.9.14.0 cftime : 1.6.4 codespell : 2.3.0 flake8 : 7.1.1 numpy : 2.1.1 pandas : 2.2.2 pip : 24.2 pytest : 8.3.3 pytest_cov : 5.0.0 pytest_env : 1.1.4 pytest_localftpserver: - setuptools : 73.0.1 sphinx : - INSTALLED VERSIONS: PIP ----------------------- pytest-reportlog: 0.4.0 ```

hence including xarray 2024.7.0, scipy 1.14.1 and netCDF4 1.7.1

the classic argopy data fetching command :

import argopy
argopy.DataFetcher().float(6902746).to_xarray()

Returns the following traceback:

It's a xarray.Dataset.where statement that raises the issue
