Add rain QC and neutral wind operator for scatwind

Add real-time rain QC and neutral wind observation operator for scatterometer wind.

TYPE:

new feature

KEYWORDS:

scatterometer wind, quality control, neutral wind, observation operator

DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES:

Problem:

1. The rain contamination in scatterometer wind data can not be fully feliminated by the operational QC method.
2. The default observation operator of scatterometer act on the wind at lowest model level, and the level height is normally higher than the scatteromerter wind height (10 meter). This will cause systemmatically bias beween model and observation. Besides, the scatterometer wind is the neutral wind that ignores the stability of surface layer, but the WRFDA theat it as normal wind observation.

Solution: We use real-time rain to detect the rain contamination in scatterometer wind. The real-time rain comes from model background forecast rain.

Besides, we impliements the neutral wind observation operator as ECMWF

@weiwangncar This one will NOT go in this time for v4.6. Will consider it in a future time.
