This PR changes how MPAS-specific output variables are written to history files:

  1. Add the "_mpas" suffix, making it clear that these variables are specific to MPAS and are different from the standard CAM ones.
  2. Change the dimension name from "nCells" to "ncol", improving the compatibility with certain tools like ncremap from NetCDF Operator.

Restart files are not affected.

Closes #1323
