time-varying bins not implemented

[jbfaden]

This is not implemented in Nand's HAPI 2.0 server:

vap+cdaweb:ds=RBSPB_REL04_ECT-HOPE-SCI-L2SA&filter=hope&id=FESA&timerange=2018-05-14

[jbfaden]

This is what the data should look like in Autoplot. I'm plotting it using Autoplot's custom support for CDAWeb:

I will provide Bob with a more correct v3.1 info response.

This is the info response it should provide:

Note there's a problem because the old server didn't make the bins (HOPE_ENERGY_Ele) available, it just dropped them. This breaks the goal of not changing the order of the parameters.
