    Solve the dynamics for a quantum system with a bunch of different solvers
    and return the results. The idea is that the results should be quite similar,
    even though some differences can be expected due to the different situation
    (approximations) the different solvers are applicable for. Also, some solvers
    here solve for unitary evolution and some the dissipative evolution, so
    depending on the values c_ops and fc_ops the dynamics can be very different.
