Description of changes
This PR revises the definition of U10 to be only the large-scale resolved winds, as was the case before gusts were added to CMEPS/CAM. The merged U10 (large-scale + gusts) is now output as a separate variable.
Specific notes
Note that duu10n is still reflective of the merged U10, as this is the wind speed used to compute actual surface fluxes. But the U10 that's output is back to being un-merged.
