New variable frazilIceFreshwaterFlux is introduced to keep track of frazil ice formation instanatenously (and not only commulatively over coupling timestep as before)

New variable landIceFreshwaterFluxTotal is introduced to keep track of total melt rates that includes both interface melt/freeze and frazil ice formation, so that landIceFreshwaterFluxTotal = landIceFreshwaterFlux + frazilIceFreshwaterFlux.

Associted changes in MPAS-Analysis reflect this to plot Antarctic meltrate maps with landIceFreshwaterFluxTotal instead of landIceFreshwaterFlux:
MPAS-Dev/MPAS-Analysis#989

The changes here affect diagnostics only.

I ran a 5-year CRYO1850.ne30pg2_r05_IcoswISC30E3r5 simulation with this branch. The analysis output from just the ice-shelf melting, frazil accretion, and total of the two can be seen here:
https://web.lcrc.anl.gov/public/e3sm/diagnostic_output/ac.xylar/analysis/20240226.CRYO1850.ne30pg2_r05_IcoswISC30E3r5.include_frazil.chrysalis/yrs_5-5/ocean/index.html

This is an important fix for us to include in our model output and analysis!

@cbegeman, could you give this another look? Hopefully, it will be quick since you already approved this on Ocean-Discussion.

This looks great. Thanks @irenavankova!
