I was making sure the test in #6832 failed on main, when it did I wrote a few lines in the `what's new` file but forgot switching back to the other branch and accidentally pushed directly to main. :(

### Describe the solution you'd like

I think it's best if we require a pull request for merging. We seem to pretty much do this anyway.

Seems to be this setting if I understand correctly:

I would like an option in `da.interp() `that instead of returning NaNs during extrapolation returns the data corresponding to the end of the breakpoint data set range. 

One way to do this is to limit the new coordinates to the array coordinates minimum and maximum value, I did a simple example with this solution down below. 
I think this is a rather safe way as we are just modifying the inputs to all the various interpolation classes that xarray is using at the moment. 
But it does look a little weird when printing the extrapolated value, the coordinates shows the limited value instead of the requested coordinates. Maybe this can be handled elegantly somewhere in the source code?


MATLAB uses this quite frequently in their interpolation functions:

<!-- In order for the maintainers to efficiently understand and prioritize issues, we ask you post a ""Minimal, Complete and Verifiable Example"" (MCVE): http://matthewrocklin.com/blog/work/2018/02/28/minimal-bug-reports -->

```python
import numpy as np
import xarray as xr


def interp(da, coords, extrapolation='clip'):
    """"""
    Linear interpolation that clips the inputs to the coords min and max value.

    Parameters
    ----------
    da : DataArray
        DataArray to interpolate.
    coords : dict
        Coordinates for the interpolated value.
    """"""
    if extrapolation == 'clip':
        for k, v in da.coords.items():
            coords[k] = np.maximum(coords[k], np.min(v.values))
            coords[k] = np.minimum(coords[k], np.max(v.values))

    return da.interp(coords)


# Create coordinates:
x = np.linspace(1000, 6000, 4)
y = np.linspace(100, 1200, 3)

# Create data:
X = np.meshgrid(*[x, y], indexing='ij')
data = X[0] * X[1]

# Create DataArray:
da = xr.DataArray(data=data, coords=[('x', x), ('y', y)], name='data')

# Attempt to extrapolate:
datai = interp(da, {'x': 7000, 'y': 375})
```

#### Expected Output
````python
print(datai)
<xarray.DataArray 'data' ()>
array(2250000.)
Coordinates:
    x        float64 6e+03
    y        float64 375.0
