[MITgcm-devel] putting exner function in GRID.h common blocks

Argh the agony of saying yes/no/yes/no.  Exner function is  thermodynamic
function specific to the ideal gas equation - bit ugly to add it to GRID.h
except that in P coordinates it is solely a function of coordinate so where
else could it go ... go for it.

hi there,
before i do this, i was wondering if there are any objections out there. i
would like to put the exner function, computed in ini_p_ground as part of
the computation of the surface geopotential, in the GRID.h common block
sequence. i will change only ini_p_ground as a consequence of this. any
other 
problems or objections?

thanks

andrea
