Description

### What is the feature/what would you like to discuss?

MPAS currently does not support any aqua-planet configurations out of the box (although the QPC7 git issue https://github.com/ESCOMP/CAM/issues/814 will/should provide MPAS support in the near future). All that is needed to run QPC6 in MPAS is an L32 notopo ncdata file (you could also run it with analytic_ic and the L32 notopo "coord" ncdata file, but that's not how we have conventionally initialized aqua-planets). I'm currently generating an L32 notopo ncdata file for ```mpasa120_mpasa120```, but we might want to support ```mpasa480_mpasa480``` as well.

@gdicker1 do you have any relevant ncdata files to address this issue?

### Is there anyone in particular you want to be part of this conversation?

@PeterHjortLauritzen @brianpm

### Will this change (regression test) answers?

No

### Will you be implementing this enhancement yourself?

Yes
