CMOR 3.14.1 released!!!

Bugfixes

• Improved error messages for time interval validation to provide clearer guidance to users. (#915)
  • When a dataset has a defined frequency attribute, the error message will include both the frequency name and its corresponding approximate time interval.
• Added a clearer error message when Zstandard compression is requested but the ZSTD filter is unavailable. (#925)
  • This error instructs users to install hdf5plugin and set the HDF5_PLUGIN_PATH environment variable.

Changes

• CMIP7 datasets: ignore the branch_method global attribute and do not add table_id to output files. (#926)

CI / Tests

• CI build migrated from conda-build to rattler-build, improving build performance. (#922)
• CI test environment now installs hdf5plugin and configures HDF5_PLUGIN_PATH for the NetCDF ZSTD filter. (#922)
• Updated CMIP7 test file templates. (#921)
• Updated CMIP7 dataset unit tests to match latest required/optional global attributes. (#926)
  • Now requires license_id, adds drs_specs, no longer requires experiment, and removes grid and source_type.

Closed Issues

• Updates to dataset frequency and time interval errors (#913)
• output_file_template leads to a filename with _variant_idtime_range_ - bug or user error? (#918)
• Migrate CI build to conda-rattler (#919)
• Update error message for zstandard compression to warn users to set up HDF5_PLUGIN_PATH (#923)
• CMIP7: branch_method global attribute dropped for CMIP7 still required by CMOR (#924)
