Docker container for pycif with nvidia HPC environment docker/nvidia#

Description#

Platform plugin for the pyCIF Docker image with NVIDIA HPC SDK.

This plugin targets a Docker container built with the NVIDIA HPC SDK (nvhpc), suitable for GPU-accelerated model variants such as LMDZ-acc. Modules are managed by Lmod, accessed via the bundled lmod binary at /usr/share/lmod/lmod/libexec/lmod.

Jobs run in-process (no batch scheduler wrapper). See the pyCIF Docker documentation for build instructions: CIF in Docker.
