Description

This PR removes the jobs that generate IODA observations for ATM and Aerosol DA using JEDI. Rather than converting to IODA in the workflow, the jobs will grab observations assuming the ObsForge directory structure and naming conventions. For operations, they will point COMIN_OBS to COM_OBSFORGE, for R&D, the prep.sh script has been modified to copy observations from IODADIR to COM.

G-W core devs: I suggest we create a new "dump" directory that gets sync'd across platforms for the CI tests to start, with the intention of eventually being the "IODA GDA". This PR is in draft until that directory gets staged and I can update the paths for each machine. I have an example directory on Ursa that I was using for dev/CI testing at: /scratch3/NCEPDEV/stmp/Cory.R.Martin/nov2025/obsforge-gw/obsforge_dump

Resolves #4064

Pinging @DavidHuber-NOAA @aerorahul and @nicholasesposito what I put above (in case the draft PRs don't send anything)

G-W core devs: I suggest we create a new "dump" directory that gets sync'd across platforms for the CI tests to start, with the intention of eventually being the "IODA GDA". That way it is separate from the existing operational GDA. This PR is in draft until that directory gets staged and I can update the paths for each machine. I have an example directory on Ursa that I was using for dev/CI testing at: /scratch3/NCEPDEV/stmp/Cory.R.Martin/nov2025/obsforge-gw/obsforge_dump
