Change in 'ind2sub' makes DASH incompatible with R2024b

[kanchukaitis]

The MATLAB built-in function 'ind2sub' changed in R2024b - https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/ind2sub.html

'Starting in R2024b, a scalar input for sz results in an error. Instead, you must specify sz as a vector of positive integers with two or more elements.'

Used within DASH, ind2sub takes a scalar and therefore will throw errors when used with MATLAB2024b (and presumably in the upcoming R2025a).

Thanks @kanchukaitis for the heads up! I'll try to have a look at this later this week. EDIT: Busy working on the response to the LA fires for the next bit, but will get to this once that wraps.

Just bumping this back to your attention, @JonKing93

Hey @kanchukaitis - I think I've fixed the problem, and I've pushed a fix onto the "patch" branch. Unfortunately, I have no way of running the code to test whether it works, so I haven't published a new release yet...

Would you (or @jesstierney, or someone else) be able to test the patch so I can merge it in? The affected code is used to both (1) load gridfiles, and (2) build ensembles, so ideally the tests would run both commands. And ideally the tests would be run on both R2024+, and a release <R2024 (to check backwards compatibility). Happy to chat more about this if it would help, just let me know!

@JonKing93 this works in 2026a, thanks!
