Description

DynCore can read AK-BK through the configure file, but not the AdvCore. To provide AdvCore with such function, we can create a reading subroutine shared by both cores. Or, we can simply copy those lines from Dyncore to AdvCore. https://github.com/GEOS-ESM/FVdycoreCubed_GridComp/blob/315228561dfe172ca29935c21a8ae015c797f99e/DynCore_GridCompMod.F90#L7557-L7579 @tclune

Research direction

Start by reading DynCore_GridCompMod.F90 at lines 7557-7579 to understand how AK-BK values are read from the configure file. Compare that logic with the AdvCore configuration path and determine whether a shared reading subroutine or equivalent AdvCore handling fits best. Done means AdvCore accepts AK-BK through the configure file like DynCore.
