Make DKCOEXP the large domain

[uandrae]

Describe your changes

Use the DKCOEXP domain as the default large option and reduce the node usage. Haven't touched the CY49 files yet so these will run the 500m but very very slow.

Requires #114 to work.

Can I expect all tasks to work on large domain?

Good point! No, it's only HARMONIE-AROME that works. I don't want to start debugging the others though before we have introduced new namelist settings.

Just to add that the change will be convenient for the DA testing.

Tested and works for Harmonie-Arome

It's worth noting that the 500m_template domain runs through with all CSCs when driven by global DT data. Haven't tested with HRES data.

@kastelecn, will this break anything for DEODE or have you already detached the config part?
