Add cube merging tool #219

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently, xcube gen can only handle one type of input. In many cases the multiple cubes generated from different input types must be combined into one single final cube.

Describe the solution you'd like

Options will need to be added (later) to handle

Additional context

For the DCS4COP project, we generate cubes from various inputs such as ocean colour products based on Sentinel-2 MSI, Sentinel 3 OLCI, and SEVIRI, observations as well as CMEMS SST.

In DCFS, reference and prediction results from machine learning need to be combined into a single cube.

Is this xcube merge tool also meant to merge 2 cubes next two each other into 1 cube? i.e. concatenating along dimensions lat, lon and time.
