New Intel compilers

[William.Hatheway]

So Intel has archived the classic compilers (ICC ifort icpc) behind a paywall.

Now the new compilers (icx ifx icpx) are the free ones.

I know there is a GitHub issue raised with this and a solution is pending release with WRF v4.6.0

Is there a timeline for the release? @kwerner or how to clone a pull request?

Does WPS have a icx/ifx fix yet?

We just had a bug-fix release today, but this was version 4.5.2. We typically do our major releases in the spring.

Per the WPS PRs, it doesn't look like a fix has been coded yet.
