More generalized `gen_ideal_test.py` about icar HOT 5 OPEN

Thanks Soren, the solution I would like to see (when someone has time) is gen_ideal_test with no CLI arguments does what it used to, then
gen_ideal_test.py --sleve generates the test from PR #126 (aka #128 )
gen_ideal_test.py --schar02 generates the test in PR #127
or something like that if possible.

better still would be that, plus an option to give it a yaml file that lets the user specify every option the ideal test can take. (that will make it easy to use for CI testing with a lot of different cases too...)

This shouldn't be too difficult, I'll look into it and start working it

@scrasmussen is it fair to say that it is somewhat general now, or do you still need to add more configurability to it?

@gutmann thanks for the reminder. I have a branch laying around with the changes I wanted, I just need to merge in the upstream changes and then create a PR.
