Add explanatory test to make the documentation examples more understandable #95

Feature request: Add more helpful motivating and descriptive language to the 3 documentation examples

The examples in the documentation could use some more descriptive language to describe what is being demonstrated. I put in a PR to help get started with this, but the examples have very few descriptions of what is going on and, importantly, why it's a useful example. A couple sentences at the top of each of the 3 examples (along the lines I suggest in my PR when describing the examples) would be very helpful for users to successfully follow along with those examples.

For example, in the first example open_process_files:

These are just a few examples - in general, a bit more explanatory text would be helpful at each main step of each example.

Apologies that I can't easily put in a PR for this, since I don't know enough about NEMO to do this well. Hopefully this will be relatively straight-forward for a NEMO and xnemogcm expert like you @rcaneill! 😊
