Expected Differences

Note that this PR is mainly for documentation changes. It describes MET's use of temporary files in the Contributor's Guide and adds relevant links between the User's Guide and Contributor's Guide. At the MET development meeting on 9/28/23, we'll discuss whether or not additional GitHub issues are warranted to refine MET's use of temporary files.

This PR also:

• Removes the unused reference to tmp_dir from regrid_data_plane
• Removes the unused tmp_dir option from the plot_point_obs configuration file/code

Note that I added a Contributor's Guide/dev_details directory rather than just a single dev_details.rst file. I anticipate that we'll want to add many development details, and it'll be convenient to organize the content across multiple .rst files rather than putting it all in one for the entire chapter.
