DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES:
Updates to the fvcom tools now require the use of two additional input variables:
One additional variable has been created for the config file (fvcom_wcstart) to define if the run will be a "warm" start or "cold" start. The creation of the time string is done in the exregional_make_ics.sh script and uses existing user defined variables (DATE_FIRST_CYCL, CYCL_HRS) to complete the task.
This will solve issue: https://github.com/NOAA-EMC/regional_workflow/issues/619
TESTS CONDUCTED:
Tests were performed on Hera and Jet for the RRFS NA grid and a custom grid over the Great Lakes.
DEPENDENCIES:
These changes are dependent upon ufs-community/UFS_UTILS#595.
