ACCESS-ESM restart repro tests don't work #123

Description

The test_restart_repro test compares checksums from a 2x1day run vs 1x2day run. This doesn't work for ACCESS-ESM1.5 or ACCESS-ESM1.6 for two reasons:

  1. The CICE cice_in.nml::dumpfreq is not modified by the model test class' set_model_runtime method, so no CICE restart is written after one day. This is easy to fix.
  2. The UM can only write restarts at the end of a month (apparently). This is harder to find a solution for. Obviously we could extend the restart repro run to 2x1month vs 1x2month, but then a restart repro test of ACCESS-ESM1.6 takes approximately 50 mins (and fails... but that's a separate issue).
