This PR adds diagnostics for the precipitation rate due to shallow or deep convection alone. This notebook indicates that these diagnostics sum to the existing total convective precipitation rate diagnostic in their instantaneous, bucket averaged, or accumulated time averaged forms.

These are named:

  • "shallow_convective_precipitation_rate_average"
  • "shallow_convective_precipitation_rate_bucket_average"
  • "shallow_convective_precipitation_rate"
  • "deep_convective_precipitation_rate_average"
  • "deep_convective_precipitation_rate_bucket_average"
  • "deep_convective_precipitation_rate"

which are slightly more verbose versions of the names for the existing total convective precipitation rate diagnostics:

  • "cnvprcp_ave"
  • "cnvprcpb_ave"
  • "cnvprcp"

Note that this implementation leads to four more 2D arrays allocated in the physics by default. Per discussion with @rheacangeo this should likely be fine from the DSL team's perspective.
