[netCDFJava #LHS-725131]: NetcdfFileWriter needs to rename original file?

Hi Matthew,

I've created a GitHub issue that explains the situation pretty well [1].

There's no good reason for the current behavior, other than it was much more 
convenient to stage the edits in the CDM objects.

You don't see this behavior in Python or Matlab because they make the edits 
directly to the file using the native C library, rather than staging the edits 
in an intermediate data model and then completely rewriting.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention,
-Christian
