Possible code duplication in propulsion

[jkirk5]

Desired capability or behavior.

There are several places in propulsion where the code traverses a section of the variable hierarchy and assembles an AviaryValues object from multiple sources, typically from another object and the metadata defaults.

Each application is different but there may be common pieces that can be spun off into a utility function. Some files where this happens include propulsion.utils.py, engine_deck.py, engine_model.py, aviary_values.py
