Workspace Method atmgeom_checkedCalc

Description

Checks consistency of geometric considerations of the atmosphere.

The following WSVs are checked: z_field, refellipsoid, z_surface,
lat_true and lon_true. If any of the variables above is changed,
then this method shall be called again (no automatic check that this is
fulfilled!).

The tests include that:
 1. refellipsoid has correct size, and that eccentricity is
    set to zero if 1D atmosphere.
 2. z_field and z_surface have sizes consistent with the
    atmospheric grids.
 3. There is no gap between z_surface and z_field.

lat_true and lon_true are allowed to be empty.

If any test fails, there is an error. Otherwise, atmgeom_checked
is set to 1.

See further atmgeom_checkedCalc.
