TYPE: bug fix
KEYWORDS: WRFDA, SEVIRI, IASI, radiance, bufr

DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES: There were some missing/misplaced deallocation statements in the subroutines for reading IASI and SEVIRI BUFR files which resulted in errors when trying to read two different files of the same observation type for these instruments. The errors were due to attempting to allocate already-allocated arrays. Moving the deallocate statements inside the file read loop, as well as adding a few more necessary deallocation statements, fix this error.
LIST OF MODIFIED FILES:
M var/da/da_radiance/da_read_obs_bufriasi.inc
M var/da/da_radiance/da_read_obs_bufrseviri.inc
TESTS CONDUCTED: Created a new regression test for 4DVAR reading two files at once, both for IASI and SEVIRI. The test failed as expected before the fix, and now passes. For GNU the test runs successfully, for Intel there is still a failure later on in the assimilation process that still needs to be resolved (likely unrelated to this issue). Other tests all still pass as expected.
