…r diffusivities - added function calc_sqg_struct in MOM_lateral_mixing_coeffs to compute sqg_struct - added sqg_expo to set the exponent of sqg_struct - to use sqg_struct for the backscatter, set BS_use_sqg=true, sqg_expo>0., and BS_EBT_power=0. - if SQG_USE_MEKE=True, use the eddy length scale from MEKE to compute sqg_struct - added eddy length scale Le in MEKE if SQG_USE_MEKE=True - added MEKE%Le into restart file if SQG_USE_MEKE=True - added MEKE in Varmix - registered N2_u and N2_v diagnostics when SQG_EXPO>0 (cherry picked from commit 6d3df0541c33d6f6d1f9fcb695f1a1eb961ec1b3)
…ll in VarMix - Vertical structures including khth_struct, khtr_struct, BS_struct, and kdgl90_struct are now computed in VarMix - Each diffusivity/viscosity have two vertical structure options, equivalent barotropic (EBT) and surface quasigeostrophic (SQG) mode structures - KHTH_USE_EBT_STRUCT, KHTR_USE_EBT_STRUCT, KDGL90_USE_EBT_STRUCT and BS_EBT_POWER parameters, which already existed, still control whether to use the EBT structure for khth, khtr, kdgl90, and backscatter, respectively - Added KHTH_USE_SQG_STRUCT, KHTR_USE_SQG_STRUCT, KDGL90_USE_SQG_STRUCT and BS_USE_SQG parameters to control whether to use the SQG structure for khth, khtr, kdgl90, and backscatter, respectively - If neither EBT nor SQG is called, no vertical structure will be used for that diffusivity/viscosity - An error will be called if both EBT and SQG structures are called for the same diffusivity/viscosity - Added dt as an input of calc_resoln_function. dt is needed for calc_sqg_struct called in calc_resoln_function

- Changed ()**0.5 to sqrt in sqg_struct, which solves the dimension error - Added if statement for using BS_struct in MOM_hor_visc - Added if statement for CS%sqg_struct<=0. - Changed the subroundoff of Coriolis parameter to 1e-40 in calc_sqg_struct - Changed parameter BS_USE_SQG to BS_USE_SQG_STRUCT

This commit added an surface quasigeostrophy (SQG) vertical structure (sqg_struct) in Varmix (MOM_lateral_mixing_coeffs) to provide a vertical profile for eddy diffusivities. The SQG vertical structure and its parameterization is given by Zhang et al. (2024): https://journals.ametsoc.org/view/journals/phoc/54/6/JPO-D-23-0203.1.xml.
Also, the vertical structure of all eddy diffusivities/viscosities, including khth, khtr, kh, and kdgl90, are reorganized in Varmix. Two vertical structures are optional for each diffusivity: the equivalent barotropic (ebt_struct) and surface quasigeostrophy (sqg_struct) structures. For example, if one wants to use the SQG structure for the thickness diffusivity Khth, they can set KHTH_USE_SQG_STRUCT=True.
