Workspace Variable atm_fields_compact

A compact combination of all atmospheric fields for a clear-sky
calculation on a common set of grids.

This concerns temperature, altitude, and gas VMRs.

The data are stored in a GriddedField4.

The order of the fields must be:
T[K] z[m] VMR_1[1] ... VMR_n[1]
(the field names for the gases do not have to start with VMR_)

Usage: Used inside batch calculations, to hold successive atmospheric
       states from an ArrayOfGriddedField4.

Possible future extensions: Add a similar variable
particle_fields_compact for hydrometeors?

Dimensions: 
   GriddedField4:
      ArrayOfString field_names[N_fields]
      Vector p_grid[N_p]
      Vector lat_grid[N_lat]
      Vector lon_grid[N_lon]
      Tensor4 data[N_fields][N_p][N_lat][N_lon]
