[netCDF #HPO-776120]: nc_put_var() converts to external types?



The documentation is indeed unclear. What is supposed to be the case is that
using nc_put_vara() or nc_put_var() assume the memory data is of the same type
as the variable type, and no conversion occurs. This assumption is necessary
because there is otherwise no way to know the type of the memory data.

Using nc_put_vara_XXX() or nc_put_var_XXX() assumes the memory type is XXX
and it should be converted (if possible) to the type of the variable before
writing to disk.
