[MITgcm-support] calendar package

[Patrick Heimbach]

Ouch. Model documentation hopelessly out of date.
1. to compile. add "cal" to packages.conf
2. to run, add "useCAL=.true." to data.pkg and provide file data.cal
   (in certain cases, e.g. when using exf, useCAL is initialized to .true.)
Example is verification/global_with_exf
-p.
