The current code for reading in the T2m and q2m observations for assimilation into the global GSI is out-dated (and probably doesn't run). This issue will add the ability to read in and process, T2m and q2m observations to be used in global assimilation.

This includes:
-adding an option to read in the 2m model background from the sfc background files
-updating setupt.f90 and -setupq.f90 to add the option to read in the model 2m background, apply suitable quality control, and terrain corrections to the first guess.

Note: Assimilation of the 2m observations will also require changes to the prepbufr processing, to update the quality control flag and observation errors for the 2m obs.

Combined with issue #508 , this will enable assimilation of 2m obs to update the soil states, intended for introduction in GFSv17.
