 Set up parameters for the gravitational part of a [`SemidiscretizationEulerGravity`](@ref).

+# Arguments
+- `background_density<:Real`: Constant background/reference density ρ₀ which is subtracted from the (Euler) density
+                              in the RHS source term computation of the gravity solver.
+- `gravitational_constant<:Real`: Gravitational constant G which needs to be in consistent units with the
+                                  density and velocity fields. 
+- `cfl<:Real`: CFL number used for the pseudo-time stepping to advance the hyperbolic diffusion equations into steady state.
+- `resid_tol<:Real`: Absolute tolerance for the residual of the hyperbolic diffusion equations which are solved to 
+                     (approximately) steady state.
+- `n_iterations_max::Int`: Maximum number of iterations of the pseudo-time gravity solver. 
+                           If `n_iterations <= 0` the solver will iterate until the residual is less or equal `resid_tol`. 
+                           This can cause an infinite loop if the solver does not converge!
+- `timestep_gravity`: Function to advance the gravity solver by one pseudo-time step.
+                      There are three optimized methods available: 
+                      1) `timestep_gravity_erk51_3Sstar!` (first-order),
+                      2) `timestep_gravity_erk52_3Sstar!` (second-order),
+                      3) `timestep_gravity_erk53_3Sstar!` (third-order).
+                      Additionally, `timestep_gravity_carpenter_kennedy_erk54_2N!` (fourth-order) can be used.
