Description
This PR replaces using blocked data structures with contiguous data structures for external data types (GFS_diagnostics and GFS_restart). This work is a continuation of #798 and is described in UWM #2294.
Also, GFS_restart_type was refactored to be consistent with GFS_diagnostics_type. This simplifies the code and opens the possibility to unify some of the fv3 io modules.
