Currently, (gdal 3.8) the netCDF driver does not support AddBand().
This driver could have such a feature since bands can be NETCDF variables.

Also, is there a reason why AddBand() is not supported by the netCDF driver ? I expected it to be able to add bands on demand as new "netcdf variables".
I guess that could be implemented. There would be a subtlety however:
if CreateCopy() has been invoked with NETCDF_DIM_EXTRA_xxx, NETCDF_DIM_xxx_DEF metadata items, to ask for bands to be modeled as a dimension (for example the time dimension of a 3D variable), that would require the band dimension to be created as UNLIMITED however at dataset creation.
otherwise for 2D variables, yes, implementing AddBand() should be relatively straighforward ... hopefully ... (please don't sue me, if it is not. The netCDF driver has its peculiarities...)
