Allow later compatible versions of xarray and pandas #170

Open peter-dudbridge opened 3 months ago

peter-dudbridge commented 3 months ago

Both xarray and pandas currently have fixed versions in the setup.py which means it's fiddly to enable later versions of xarray if we're using weatherbench as a dep. In particular there's a number of improvements in xarray that are worth getting. By changing the strict equals to the compatible release clause we can use newer versions whilst ensuring things don't break.
