Description

Desired capability or behavior.

Currently, Aviary automatically adds all core subsystems to the problem through hardcoded temp code in methods for L2. This needs to be changed so the user can provide the subsystem builders they want to be used. Adding all core subsystems can be done as a default option of the user does not provide the subsystems they want.

Depends on #418, as that will change how subsystems are handled within an AviaryProblem
