Description
When a host config directly defines the path to a tpl we should use that installation instead of building our own and also use that installation for any dependencies of that tpl. For example when using a system version of hdf5 we shouldn't build hdf5 and then we also need to build axom and conduit against that system version.

Research direction
No file or test is named in the issue. Start by tracing how host configs provide direct tpl paths and how dependencies are selected for building; done means a configured system library is reused and dependent tpl libraries such as axom and conduit build against it instead of rebuilding it.
