/**
 * Resolve the RRTMGP surface-temperature input from ERF's surface sources.
 *
 * RRTMGP and LSM surface-temperature fields contain absolute temperature,
 * while the SurfaceLayer field contains potential temperature.  The latter
 * must therefore be converted with the physical surface pressure diagnosed
 * from the lowest atmospheric cell before it is handed to RRTMGP.
 *
 * @param[in]  is_land                 true when the column is over land
 * @param[in]  has_lsm_t_sfc           true when an LSM t_sfc field exists
 * @param[in]  valid_lsm_t_sfc         true when the LSM value is not a sentinel
 * @param[in]  lsm_t_sfc               LSM t_sfc value, when present
 * @param[in]  has_surface_layer       true when a SurfaceLayer field exists
 * @param[in]  surface_layer_theta     SurfaceLayer potential temperature
 * @param[in]  surface_pressure        physical surface pressure diagnosed from
 *                                     the lowest atmospheric cell
 * @param[in]  rdOcp                   configured Rd/cp exponent
 * @param[in]  default_t_sfc           configured absolute-temperature fallback
 * @param[out] t_sfc                   resolved absolute temperature for RRTMGP
