Summary
Dymos hides the implementation of the ODE from the user and therefore makes it difficult to connect external outputs directly to inputs of the ODE. The user should never do this, and instead should always use
parametersorcontrolsto get external variables into the ODE.This can be tedious when systems are large and have many inputs.
To make this easier for the user, this PR adds a new capability to Dymos. It will determine which inputs of the ODE have not been connected and will automatically turn those into
parametersto which the user can connect.These parameters cannot be used as design variables (those parameters must be explicitly added).
