enable configuration file for material properties

[gknapp1]

This PR implements two main features:

• Creates a repository workflow for pulling material file data from Myna and using Mist to automatically generate AdditiveFOAM input files from that data
  • An initial pull of that data is included in the PR and the workflow is set to run once a week
  • If the weekly workflow notices changes in the Myna material database, a PR will automatically be created on AdditiveFOAM repo to merge the changes into main
• Modifies the thermoPath file format and associated reader to allow for users to user the OpenFOAM file #include syntax to set values from the database.
  • The AMB2018-02-B tutorial is updated to use this feature
  • To keep functionObjects synced up with the material parameters, a change to the default behavior for the function objects was added to have them pull from thermoPath table for setting isoValues. If the user manually specifies isoValue/isoValues in controlDict, then those will be used as-is.

Since this feature needs some changes to the solver to support this approach to material configuration, this feature is in draft state until the following structural decisions & changes are implemented through other PRs:

• Should thermoPath move into the transportProperties dict?
• What does a single-file material configuration file (.cfg) look like?
• Where is the source of truth for solidus and liquidus temperatures: thermoPath or some user-set values?
• How should functionObjects inherit solidus and liquidus values as defaults: through reference in the controlDict functionObject dicts (e.g., $solidus) or through default settings read from thermoPath and set in the solver?

This feature will also be in draft state until the following features are added, based on the decisions above:

• A Mist-based script to produce a single .cfg file instead of the current structure is needed
• A tutorial that pull the material properties across all files from the material .cfg files (e.g., emissivity in 0/T, Marangoni coefficient in 0/U)

Is there a minimum working example here where we just provide material configuration files, similar to what we provide for the nlight laser profiles, here:

@colemanjs Yes, I updated the AMB2018-02-B tutorial to use the material configuration file instead of directly specifying the thermoPath and transportProperties.
