When open_mfdataset is used on files which have a long time axis, sometimes one time axis is cast to pd.Timestamp whilst the other is cast to cftime.datetime. In such a case, xarray thinks the time co-ordinates are different and won't load and combine the files automatically. This PR identifies this issue. I've also put in a hack solution but there must be a better way to handle this edge case.
