Update configuration.rst

Added subsection for Hurricane Matthew under Default Datasets section. Added subsections for WPS Namelist, WRF Namelist and Other Datasets, and METplus Config File, either copying in the contents of the file or linking to an existing file in the I-WRF Github repository as appropriate.

 Default Datasets and Namelists

+Hurricane Matthew Test Case
+---------------------------
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+WPS Namelist
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Use this in the namelist.wps file when running WPS for the Hurricane Matthew case (TODO: Eventually replace this with a link to a file on Github). Note that you will need to update geog_data_path, opt_geogrid_tbl_path, and opt_metgrid_tbl_path for your machine/environment to point to locations of the WPS_GEOG dataset, GEOGRID.TBL, and METGRID.TBL files, respectively. WPS_GEOG is a large static dataset of geographic data that is required for geogrid.exe to run (see: https://www2.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/OnLineTutorial/Basics/GEOGRID/ter_data.php). GEOGRID.TBL and METGRID.TBL are typically found in the geogrid/ and metgrid/ directories inside the WPS installation directory.::

+WRF Namelist and Other Config Files
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Use this namelist.input file when running WRF for the Hurricane Matthew case, from the Github repository:
+
+https://github.com/NCAR/i-wrf/blob/main/use_cases/Hurricane_Matthew/WRF/namelist.input
+
+Note that the iofields_filename variable points to a file called vars_io.txt. This file adds or removes WRF variables from various output (history) streams (stream 0 is the default history stream). Note also that the auxhist22* and auxhist23* variables are specified for the height-level and pressure-level diagnostics, respectively. The levels at which to write out those height-level and pressure-level diagnostics are specified in the &diags namelist, and vars_io.txt also changes which variables are written to these files from the default settings for streams 22 and 23. METplus expects to find the wrfout_plev* files in order to do upper-air verification against radiosonde observations at mandatory pressure levels.
+
+Use this for the vars_io.txt file for the Hurricane Matthew case, from the Github repository:
+
+https://github.com/NCAR/i-wrf/blob/main/use_cases/Hurricane_Matthew/WRF/vars_io.txt
+
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+METPlus Config File
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+For the METplus configuration file for the Hurricane Matthew case, please use this file on the Github repository:
+
+https://github.com/NCAR/i-wrf/blob/main/use_cases/Hurricane_Matthew/METplus/PointStat_matthew.conf.
