Use wgrib2 for HRRR grid extraction (7s vs 80+ minutes)
Add Wgrib2 module that shells out to wgrib2 binary for fast GRIB2
grid extraction using -lola (nearest-neighbor to regular lat-lon grid).
Falls back to pure-Elixir decoder if wgrib2 is not installed.

Also: parallel GRIB2 range downloads, merge adjacent byte ranges,
skip corrupt messages instead of failing, pressure fetch is optional.
