Add possibility to run with specific commercial solvers like CPLEX and Gurobi

I'm re-posting this question, I see that FlexTool now explicitly connects to and uses CPLEX, but what about Gurobi?

ArttuTupala commented 3 months ago

The issue with commercial solvers is that even though they have standardized input file format options, the output format is different (even though they have the same information). A converter needs to be made to glpsol and tested which requires a Gurobi licence that is not currently available. The plan is to get it at some point and make it an option to the FlexTool users.
