Glider DAC Format v3 Support

With this release we moved all the netCDF files out of the repository in favor of CDL files, like with the main-project and other plugins. We also integrated checker support for the changes in the new v3.0 format:

• optional QARTOD variables

In addition to these new changes, we added some checks for some common errors we've seen with submissions:
