Description

### What problem does your feature request solve?
Generates area-weighted averages of a field over a defined region, as is available in the UK trialling branch of the RES toolbox.

### Describe the solution you'd like
A clear process to calculating area average for a model. A provisional process could be as follows:

- Identify region
- Read model field
- Mask to region (if required)
- Remove missing data
- Apply area weighting
- Compute the mean
- Plot

Observations should be an option for the plots once available, see #403.
