Workspace Method atm_fields_compactCleanup

Description

Removes unrealistically small or erroneous data from
atm_fields_compact (or other GriddedField4 data)

This WSM checks if the data in atm_fields_compact contains
values smaller than the given *threshold*. In this case, these
values will be set to zero.

The method should be applied if atm_fields_compact contains
unrealistically small or erroneous data (NWP/GCM model data
occassionally contains negative values, which are numerical
artefacts rather than physical values.)
