Ferret v7.6.0 release.

See the release notes at https://ferret.pmel.noaa.gov/Ferret/documentation/version-76-release-notes

This version adds automatic handling of discrete sampling geometry (DSG), also referred to as ragged-array, NetCDF files. This greatly simplifies the handling and plotting of this type of data. By default PyFerret will use these new capabilities when it detects the data is in this format, although one can turn this off if it interferes in legacy scripts handling this type of data in other ways.

And, of course, there are a number of minor bug fixes.

The pre-built distributions given here contain the extracted contents of both fer_environment.tar.gz and fer_executables.tar.gz tar files associated with older releases of Ferret. After extracting the contents of the appropriate tar file, run the bin/Finstall script found in the extracted directory only with option 2 (skip option 1, it has already been done).
