Update obs4MIPs tables

[schlunma]

Description

I've been working with obs4MIPs data a lot recently, which can be quite frustrating because our tables are very outdated. This PR updates the tables to the most recent commit (note that the latest released version is also very old (>3.5 years)).

Couple of additional things I found:

• This also fixes the automatic retrieval of the institute facet for obs4MIPs data.
• As far as I can tell from Metagrid, it's also necessary to specify a grid for obs4MIPs datasets to fully describe them (it works without it because in 99% of cases the grid is gn, but technically we need it). We might consider updating our recipes accordingly.

Removal of tables

The following tables have been removed:

• obs4MIPs_monNobs.json (with single variable ndviNobs)
• obs4MIPs_monStderr.json: (with single variable ndviStderr)

Those cannot be used anymore.

Closes #1890

As far as I can tell from Metagrid, it's also necessary to specify a grid for obs4MIPs datasets to fully describe them (it works without it because in 99% of cases the grid is gn, but technically we need it). We might consider updating our recipes accordingly.

grid is only used for newer, CMIP6 style obs4MIPs data. Our recipes still use a lot of the older CMIP5 style data. See also #2711.
