[mpas-developers] cellTangentPlane

Hey Michael,

It looks like this field is setup in src/operators/mpas_rbf_interpolation.F
and that it is indeed meant to be nCells long. It's also used in
src/operators/mpas_vector_reconstruction.F, and the only loop it's in is
over nCellsSolve as well. So I think this change is fine.

Thanks,
Doug
