This feature keeps access to Carroll Inlet adjacent to Stange Ice Shelf in the Bellingshausen Sea region of Antarctica.

Agree we want this open to avoid a land(-ice) locked ocean region - thanks @xylar !

My testing with this didn't work, but I found that the reason is that critical passages open up the ocean but don't change the landIceFration so the result is that a critical passage just changes grounded land-ice to floating land ice. I'll need to fix that in Compass.

In my testing in MPAS-Dev/compass#846, this seems to be accomplishing what we want it to. If @darincomeau agrees, I'll merge both this PR and that one, and get to work on MPAS-Dev/compass#845
