AddElementalFieldAction

Adds elemental auxiliary variable for adaptivity system.

The MOOSE adaptivity system relies on error calculations that inform a marker that dictates if an element should be refined or coarsened. The error and the markers rely on auxiliary field variables, this actions creates those field variables. Please refer to Adaptivity System for details regarding the adaptivity system.
