Subject: [PATCH] chore: add .git-blame-ignore-revs (#2057)

Clear some "noise" when using GitHub's "blame view" UI tool to see changes in code history for individual files.

These commits are chosen as they are mostly style-related changes rather than code refactors (minor refactors are OK):

- 41e98a2
- c033fc8
- 571dcfd
- cc444d0
- 04e82dd
- b063109
- 9514eb4
- c3f4153
- ff1f8e5
- d56a12e
- 9f7c07a
- 9d55d58
- f6c3a55

A note is added to DEVELOPER.md optionally configure git blame. Nothing else is needed for GitHub, which automatically uses the file.

 Python 3.9+ is required to run MODFLOW 6 tests and in some cases to build MODFLOW 6. Information on installing the python environment is given in the [Installing Python environment](#install-the-python-environment) section. The MODFLOW 6 python environment should be installed after [locally cloning the repository](#get-the-modflow-6-repository).
