Updates for LDF

Minor changes getting LDF to work

Not sure what formatting test I can run here. Otherwise, I'd like to send a link to this branch to collaborators for our work time on Thursday.

@wwieder you can run the following on casper/derecho to locally perform the linting/formatting test:

module load conda
conda activate npl
pylint --rcfile=<LDF>/lib/test/pylintrc <LDF>/lib/adf_diag.py

where <LDF> is the path to your local ADF/LDF branch. I believe you'll need to get the score above 9.5 in order for the test on Github to pass. Of course if you have any questions or issues with this process just let me know. Thanks!

Thanks @nusbaume. I got the pylint score to pass, seemingly without breaking anything.
