as discussed in #4837, this adds a method that applies a function to a DataArray by first converting it to a temporary dataset using _to_temp_dataset, applies the function and converts it back. I'm not really happy with the name but I can't find a better one.

This function is really similar to pipe, so I guess a keyword argument to pipe would work, too. The disadvantage of that is that pipe passes all kwargs to the passed function, which means we would shadow a specific kwarg.
