MAPL 2.26.0

From CHANGELOG.md

[2.26.0] - 2022-09-16

Fixed

• Change the logic to check if the field is already connected to a valid grid. If yes, we bypass the checks for tilegrid (issue Allow handling of tiled data in ExtData2G #1654)
• Removed unnecessary DSO extension assert
• Fixed bug that required a /dev/null ExtData entry to still have a file variable name
• Fixed bug with checking for duplicate alias in collection
• Added protection in History to only allow instantaneous or time-averaged modes

Added

• Added Ninja build of MAPL to CI tests

Changed

• Have MAPL_AddChildFromDSO call MAPL_AddChildFromDSOMeta (AddChildFromDSO should call AddChildFromDSOMeta #1598)

Removed

• Removed unused code from History GridComp
