[Deprecation]: Deprecate CDML support in `open_dataset()` and `open_mfdataset()` #604

We've had this info in our docstrings but not as a GitHub issue. Support for CDAT has ceased in Dec. 2023, including cdscan which produces CDML (XML) files.

Hey @lee1043, are still using xCDAT’s CDML support in open_mfdataset() in the PCMDI Metrics? Or did you go back to using the PCMDI Metrics CDML function, before CDML support was added to xCDAT?

I'm aware you're still converting PCMDI Metrics to use Xarray/xCDAT and would like to gauge what a good time is to deprecate this feature in xCDAT.

@tomvothecoder thank you for checking. I am using xml files but via a function embedded in PMP. I am okay with the deprecation in xCDAT.
