GEOS-ESM/MAPL: MAPL 2.19.0

This release of MAPL has many updates and fixes to support GEOS and GOCART development. These include:

• Building of the next-generation ExtData2G (use controlled by USE_EXTDATA2G CMake option)
• Fixes to the Automatic Code Generation Python script for GOCART development
• Fixes to allow building MAPL on M1 Macs
• And more (see below)

All testing shows this release is zero-diff for GEOSgcm versus MAPL 2.18.3 From CHANGELOG.md Fixed

• Fixed duration of the clock to be the smaller of the user specified duration and (END_DATE - currTime)
• Fixes for compiling on M1 Macs (remove REAL128)
• Fix for CMake when esmf is already a target

Added

• New cmake option USE_EXTDATA2G to enable the next generation of ExtData for development, by default uses 1st generation ExtData
• MAPL_ESMFFieldBundleRead/Write modules are now available in when using MAPL

Changed

• Replaced a wild card "*" in any position of a string in MAPL_GridCompSpecs_ACG.py
• Updated MAPL_SunGetSolarConstantFromNRLFile to open NRL Solar Table file only on root and broadcast the tables to all processes. Now all processes do interpolation.
• Add voting interpolation method as optional argument to SimpleBundleRead method
