Investigate making Cartopy (and therefore Matplotlib) an optional dependency #6839

@trexfeathers

Description

@trexfeathers

Not all Iris users need to plot. However we currently also depend on Cartopy for coordinate systems, so this issue is dependent on #4643.

  • Complete Adopt pyproj.CRS #4643
  • Complete any other necessary steps to remove Cartopy from Iris core functionality
  • Adopt the optional dependency patterns for Cartopy
    • Unit versus Integration testing
    • Dependency listing
    • User warning
