More low-level changes to make this change mergeable with develop, still work in progress

See #677 for more details

Partially addresses #700

Remainin things:

• Get rid of obsolete entries/tasks
• Documentation update

@mranst a question for you regarding suite_config.py. For this PR, I would like to test the forecast_coupled_geos (originally forecast_geos) suite, which is not in tier1 tests. I'm trying to change the cycle_times but is key only used if it's within model level? When I create with the following my experiment.yaml cycle_times is still T00:

# --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

class SuiteConfig(QuestionContainer, Enum):

    # --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    forecast_coupled_geos = QuestionList(
        list_name="forecast_coupled_geos",
        questions=[
            sq.all_suites,
            qd.start_cycle_point("2021-07-02T12:00:00Z"),
            qd.final_cycle_point("2021-07-03T12:00:00Z"),
            qd.cycle_times([
                "T12",
            ]),
            qd.geos_build_method("use_existing"),
            qd.forecast_duration("P1D"),
        ],
    )

    # --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    forecast_coupled_geos_tier1 = QuestionList(
        list_name="forecast_coupled_geos_tier1",
        questions=[
            forecast_coupled_geos
        ]
    )

Yes, cycle_times is usually a model-dependent key, it's also handled weirdly by swell.

swell/src/swell/deployment/prepare_config_and_suite/prepare_config_and_suite.py

Lines 228 to 234 in 1e92396

	# If there are no models and the cycle_times is in the keys then remove the models key from
	# the cycle_times question dictionary
	if 'cycle_times' in self.question_dictionary_model_ind.keys():
	if not self.suite_needs_model_components:
	self.question_dictionary_model_ind['cycle_times'].pop('models')
	self.question_dictionary_model_ind['cycle_times']['default_value'] = 'T00'

You can change this to ->

        # If there are no models and the cycle_times is in the keys then remove the models key from
        # the cycle_times question dictionary
        if 'cycle_times' in self.question_dictionary_model_ind.keys():
            if not self.suite_needs_model_components:
                self.question_dictionary_model_ind['cycle_times'].pop('models')
                if self.question_dictionary_model_ind['cycle_times']['default_value'] == 'defer_to_model':
                    self.question_dictionary_model_ind['cycle_times']['default_value'] = 'T00'
