remove cdms2 (#8441)

* remove `cdms2` from all environments

* remove any code related to `cdms2`

* remove the `mypy` override for `cdms2`

* remove the special environment files for python 3.11

* whats-new

* more info on the replacement

* remove the `cdms2` methods from the api docs

* remove all mentions of UV-CDAT / cdms2 from the faq

* also change the binder environment

 We think the design decisions we have made for xarray (namely, basing it on
 pandas) make it a faster and more flexible data analysis tool. That said, Iris
-and CDAT have some great domain specific functionality, and xarray includes
-methods for converting back and forth between xarray and these libraries. See
-:py:meth:`~xarray.DataArray.to_iris` and :py:meth:`~xarray.DataArray.to_cdms2`
-for more details.
