#247 new Defect

allow for using WRF output with lakes

Description

There is a hard-coded check for the value of num_land_cat in the
WRF output, and FLEXPART-WRF would only recognize values 24 (for USGS)
and 20 (for MODIS). However, when one uses lakes in WPS geogrid, the
value of num_land_cat will be 28 or 21 for USGS and MODIS land use
data, respectively.

This patch modifies the check accordingly.

Also, now a warning message is printed if the value of num_land_cat
is not recognized.

of course the warning in the end is wrong; it should be inside an else one line further up.
