Estimate velocity at ice-free cells near the ice margin using interpolation from immediate neighbors that are icy.

This is used to improve the initial guess of ice viscosity at marginal locations when ice advances: otherwise we would use the zero velocity (if CFBC is "on"), and that is a poor estimate at best.

Note: icy cells of velocity are treated as read-only, and ice-free marginal cells are write-only. This means that it's okay for velocity to be a input-output argument: we don't use of the values modified by this method.
