Describe the update

This PR changes the ExtData.rc specification for AEIC 2019 monthly climatology files. The standard format used for monthly climatology in ExtData.rc uses the clim flag Y and read frequency in format F{year}-%m2-01T00:00:00. The previous specification used clim year (2019) for the climatology flag and included tokens for year, month, and day for read frequency. The old method works but it would be good to use the standard format for consistency and to avoid confusion during the migration from the ExtData.rc file to the ExtData.yml file when we switch to MAPL 3.

Expected changes

This is a zero diff update for GCHP since the old and new formats give identical results.
