Added a test that reads in a file with the old dimension names are ensures the dimensions are still set correctly.
No impact. This is a convenience detail and no users should be writing new restart files using the old dimension names.
The generated old_names.nc file will suffer the same deficiencies as the restart files used to but will never be updated.
