Add GitHub action to run SonarQube for METplotpy pull requests and feature branches

[JohnHalleyGotway]

Describe the New Feature

This issue is to add a new SonarQube workflow to GitHub actions to automate the static code analysis for all pull requests. In addition, add a manual trigger workflow dispatch option where the reference branch can be manually specified.

Recommend adding this workflow to both the develop branch and the current main_v*so that the workflow dispatch option can be made available.

Recommend pushing results to a new SonarQube project named METplotpy GHA at needham.rap.ucar.edu.

Recommend having the workflow report bad status if the number of SonarQube findings are increased relative to the SonarQube reference.

See issue dtcenter/MET#2379 and its two linked PR's as an example, but the implementation for a python-only repo should be more straight-forward.

Reopening issue during the beta5 development cycle to switch to pushing to a single SonarQube project rather than separate ones for GitHub actions and the nightly build.
