Issue:
Mrtrix3's DWIPreproc force inputs that are not mandatory
### Summary
The interface to Mrtrix3's dwifslpreproc forces some inputs that are not really necessary according to [the original CLI on which it relies](https://mrtrix.readthedocs.io/en/dev/reference/commands/dwifslpreproc.html).

### Actual behavior
The interface requires inputs to be set for out_grad_mrtrix, pe_dir, etc.

### Expected behavior
Ideally, it would change the necessary inputs (that are different and depends on the way you use this CLI).
A simpler solution would be to simply reduce the mandatory inputs to those that truly are.

python -c "import nipype; from pprint import pprint; pprint(nipype.get_info())"
