Pre-process climatology files
Note: PMP uses the time variables in the climatology files to determine which months they are for, assuming the file with smallest time is January and so on. This causes problem when the climatology files are created using ncclimo with -a scd option. Since scd means seasonally continuous December (The first month used will be Dec of the year before the start year), the December climatology file will have the smallest time variable. cdscan command in the next step will misplace the input for one month (e.g., the December file for January, etc.).
check_climo.py will check the time variables in the January and December climatology files. If the December file has a smaller time value, it will be added by 365.

Use cdscan to create xml describing input files
Note: Input files are monthly climatology. Don't put seasonal and annual climo files in the input directory.
