experiment_id requested for obs4MIPs data

[durack1]

This error suggests that experiment_id is a hard-coded element, this field is not applicable for the obs4MIPs project.

@taylor13 @dnadeau4 pinging you both here, this relates to the code in PCMDI/obs4MIPs-cmor-tables#60

(cmor325) bash-3.2$ python runCmorDemo.py

I think this might be related: PCMDI/obs4MIPs-cmor-tables#35

For other experiment, you need to take this out:
_cmip6_option": "CMIP6",
or set it to some other string. This triggers a bunch of verification that you do not need.

[taylor13]

I agree, but unless we didn't do it correctly, we meant to set _cmip6_option to "off", so we wouldn't trigger the tests. We'll need to double check. thanks.

[dnadeau4]

I looked at the code, and I only check if _cmip6_option is defined, but not its value. I can change that if needed. For now just remove the line entirely to make sure you don't trigger CMIP6 checks.

By removing the line, _cmip6_option will not be defined in the dataset.

cmor_has_cur_dataset_attribute(GLOBAL_IS_CMIP6) == 0)

@dnadeau4 your note above is accurate with CMOR3.2.5, once I remove this line the experiment_id error disappears, so I will close this issue
