What happened?

When writing a DataArray with CRS information to zarr, after converting it to a Dataset, the CRS is not readable from the zarr file.

What did you expect to happen?

To be able to retrieve the CRS information from the zarr file.

Minimal Complete Verifiable Example

```python da = xr.DataArray(np.arange(9).reshape(3,3), coords={'x':range(3), 'y':range(3)} )

da = da.rio.write_crs(4326) da.to_dataset(name='var').to_zarr('var.zarr') xr.open_zarr('var.zarr')['var'].rio.crs == None # returns True ```

Anything else we need to know?

I'd be happy to have a look at this if it is indeed a bug.
