New Use Case: Satellite verification of sea surface temperature (GHRSST) against RTOFS output

[mrinalbiswas]

Replace italics below with details for this issue.

Describe the New Use Case

This new use case will duplicate the efforts of Todd Spindler's VLab-Redmine code, specifically its calculations for satellite verification of sea surface temperature using GHRSST as obs, RTOFS output as model forecasts, WOA as climatology to calculate anomaly and OSTIA ice for masking.
It still needs to be determined if the graphical output currently produced and displayed at the site listed below need to be produced in this use case.
As a final step, these new data sources will be logged in the METplus Verification Datasets Guide.

This is part of the larger Marine layer Verification package integration, which is tracked in #800.

Acceptance Testing

A successful output from this use case will duplicate ongoing efforts currently completed with Todd's VLab code.
