Parcels v3.1.0: a Lagrangian Ocean Analysis tool for the petascale age

Parcels v3.1.0 implements support for CROCO sigma grids, adds reprs for key parcels classes (allowing you to easily introspect fieldsets etc), and makes changes to the API (complete with user warnings) to clearly distinguish what the user is expected to use.
