tidync() fails on NetCDF4 file with groups; expected? #110

Just wanted to double-check that the docs-noted incompatibility with groups applies to reading as well as writing. If not, and it is expected that files with groups should be readable, here's an example:

tmp = tempfile()
curl::curl_download(
    url = "https://github.com/arviz-devs/arviz/raw/main/arviz/data/_datasets/centered_eight.nc"
    , destfile = tmp
)
tidync::tidync(tmp)

And the resulting error:

Error: `distinct()` must use existing variables.
x `id` not found in `.data`.
x `name` not found in `.data`.
x `type` not found in `.data`.
x `ndims` not found in `.data`.
x `natts` not found in `.data`.

Not supported, should error better though
