This PR adds regional data extraction to the DA Conventional Monitor (ConMon) in a manner similar to that which is in the RadMon. Note that plotting the extracted data using the legacy DA Monitor is not (yet) available, but some prototype plots using the Obs-monitor repo (DA monitoring 2.0) are working now (see #110 for an example).
These changes have been tested using binary cnvstat files from the oeprational NAM on wcoss2 and hera. It's also been confirmed these changes do not affect functioning with global data (GFS) in NetCDF formatted cnvstat files.
Additionally this PR fixes two bugs in the source code for data extraction from binary cnvstat files.
Closes #110
