Description
Would be nice to allow adding a newly created ClimArray to an existing .nc file.
We first check that the dimensions of given ClimArray exist (and with correct size) to the given file, and then we just write it by reusing the code we use for climarray_to_nc.
Easy!

Research direction
Start by locating the existing climarray_to_nc implementation and the code that opens or validates .nc files. Check how dimensions and sizes are represented, then confirm that a newly created ClimArray can be validated against an existing file and written there; done means incompatible dimensions are rejected and compatible data is stored.
