Blocked Build Due to Unavailable NetCDF Library (edu.ucar:cdm-core:jar:5.5.3) #11511

Description:
We're encountering a recurring build issue related to the NetCDF library:

Error: Failed to read artifact descriptor for edu.ucar:cdm-core:jar:5.5.3  
Caused by: The following artifacts could not be resolved: edu.ucar:cdm-core:pom:5.5.3 (absent):  
Could not transfer artifact edu.ucar:cdm-core:pom:5.5.3 from/to unidata-all (https://artifacts.unidata.ucar.edu/repository/unidata-all/): status code: 403, reason phrase: Forbidden (403)

It seems version 5.5.3 may not exist on Maven Central either:
https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/edu.ucar/cdm-core

This is currently blocking all builds without a Maven cache. Affected PRs include but are not limited to:
#11374
#11411

This may be related to ongoing organizational changes at UCAR/Unidata. See announcement regarding the formation of the NetCDF Foundation:

Proposed Interim Solution:

Use a local copy of the required NetCDF JAR(s) in local_lib as done temporarily in #11011

Revisit and clean up before the Dataverse 6.7 release

Tagging @landreev , @pdurbin , and @qqmyers for input.
