Bug Description

The materials output system allows any name to be specified in the "Materials/*/outputs" parameter. This should ideally be restricted to output names that are of type Exodus, otherwise nothing will happen and the user will not know that the parameter they specified isn't outputting anything to a file

Steps to Reproduce

Set Material/*/outputs='console' in any input file. This doesn't produce an error even though it should, since outputting materials to a non-Exodus output object doesn't do anything in the code.

Impact

outputs parameter should behave as expected, and should not be set to values that don't have any effect.
