Added tests for processes, solvers, transforms, and learning rules
This commit also fixes a bug in FrozenObject.__repr__ for arguments that were being passed `Default`. previously they would always show up in the repr because the resolved default value is different from what shows up in the `defaults` dict, which will always be `nengo.Default`.
Previously, Default was only supported in NengoObject and LearningRuleType. In order to support it in more FrozenObject subclasses, we effectively wanted to add the SupportDefaultsMixin to FrozenObject; however, we needed a slight change in logic in FrozenObject, so we opted for a small amount of duplication to allow us to remove SupportDefaultsMixin. The previous behavior is now in NengoObject.__setattr__ and the slightly changed logic is in FrozenObject.__setattr__.

Motivation and context:
In #1615, I noticed that
LearningRuleTypesupportsDefaultarguments, but no otherFrozenObjecttypes do. Since it seems like they should, I moved that ability to theFrozenObjectclass, and made use of that ability in all the subclasses.A few side effects / cleanups done in the process were to remove the
SupportDefaultsMixinand to move theFrozenObjecttobase.py.Interactions with other PRs:
Based on #1615.
How has this been tested?
All unit tests passed without modification.
How long should this take to review?
Where should a reviewer start?
Probably go commit by commit, the last commit has the biggest diff but is the smallest conceptual change.

Still to do:
Still need to do changelog entries, but wanted to make sure people think this is a good idea before writing it.
