Is your feature request related to a problem?

small feature suggestion. not sure if this already exists. if not maybe you could use it.

Describe the solution you'd like

`` def extent_slice(da): ''' return ada.sel`-slicable dictionary of coords for the extents of da 

Example
--------
big_da.sel(extent_slice(small_da)) 
'''
coords = da.coords
return {k:slice(coords[k].min().data,coords[k].max().data) for k in coords}

```

useful in conjunction with interp_like, interp, and binary operations.

Describe alternatives you've considered
