 Issue #814 - Introduce QPC7 and possibly QPS7 aquaplanet compsets

   - Open new issue to address QPS7.
+  - The new aquaplanet configurations use '-chem none' to eliminate the

+    configuration that leaves the default chemistry in place and removes
+    aerosols by zeroing the initial concentrations and emission sources.
