CliMA/Oceananigans.jl: v0.38.0

Diff since v0.37.0

• New experimental WENO-5 advection scheme for momentum and tracers. Use by passing advection=WENO5() when creating a model. See https://github.com/CliMA/Oceananigans.jl/pull/592 for convergence tests, comparisons, and benchmarks.
• Very experimental automatically generated WENO{N} advection schemes.
• New framework for high-order advection schemes abstracting centered and upwind schemes.
• Lid-driven cavity verification experiment against data by Ghia et al. (1982). See the docs for movies.
• New lazily-computed PressureField.
• Avoiding unnecessary recomputation of fields in output evaluation.
• Bug fixes for WindowedTimeAverage and AveragedField.
• BREAKING: Internal functions run_diagnostic(model, diag) and write_output(model, output_writer) are now run_diagnostic!(diag, model) and write_output!(output_writer, model).
