Changed the temperature and salinity input files to allow for more than a single temperature and salinity input file.

The old format was:

#Temperature time series data file

use_tempfiles 1

Temperature /home/bec/Code/atlantis/runFiles/trunk/StormNew/copy/inputs/forcisets/StormTemp.nc

Salinity time series data file

use_saltfiles 1

Salinity /home/bec/Code/atlantis/runFiles/trunk/StormNew/copy/inputs/forcisets/StormSalt.nc

The new format is:

Temperature time series data file

use_tempfiles 1

The number of temperature input files

ntempfiles 1

The names of the temperature input files.

Temperature0.name /home/bec/Code/atlantis/runFiles/trunk/StormNew/copy/inputs/forcisets/StormTemp.nc

Salinity time series data file

use_saltfiles 1

The number of salinity files

nsaltfiles 1

The names of the salinity input files

Salinity0.name /home/bec/Code/atlantis/runFiles/trunk/StormNew/copy/inputs/forcisets/StormSalt.nc

This change allows people to break large temperature and salinity files up to allow easier viewing.
