feat: add deployment object dump debug feature

[machshev]

Debug feature to dump a JSON representation of the Deploy objects, just before they are sent to the scheduler. This feature is hidden behind an environment variable to avoid cluttering the CLI interface. The full Deploy object is not JSON serialisable in it's current form, so we only serialise the attributes that the LocalLauncher uses.

To enable set DVSIM_DEPLOY_DUMP=true, run DVSim and there will be a file called deploy-<timestamp>.json generated in the scratch directory scratch/<branch>/deploy-<timestamp.json>.

This file can they be compared between runs to check for regressions in the flow leading up to job deployment. With --fixed-seed=1 --branch=baseline, the resulting json files should be identical. Setting the "branch" doesn't actually change the git branch, it just overrides what DVSim
thinks is the branch as far as paths in the scratch directory are concerned. We need to either set this to something fixed so that the deployment objects contain the same paths, otherwise a diff will fail.

Generating a diff or hash of the two files and comparing shows if the job deployments would be identical or not.

Using this functionality I have confirmed, by backporting this commit to the first release tag, that none of the refactorings made so far in this repository have changed the deployment objects in such a way that the launched jobs are different in any way.

The first JSON file was generated from backporting the this feature to the tagged commit. The second file was generated with this branch and includes all the tidyup work made so far to DVSim.

The DVSim command used is:

DVSIM_DEPLOY_DUMP=true dvsim \
    ~/base/opentitan/hw/top_earlgrey/dv/top_earlgrey_sim_cfgs.hjson \
    --proj-root ~/base/opentitan -i nightly --scratch ~/scratch \
    --branch baseline --fixed-seed 1 \
    --verbose=debug --max-parallel=50 \
    --cov

Note: your hashes will be different from mine as the directory paths will be different. However if you run this against the same versions your hashes should be the same as each other.

Pirmin is away until Oct 20 so I suggest you remove him as a reviewer

Turns out that the coverage merge directories are provided in a semi random order. Which means that if you run DVSim several times then the hash can be different due to that.

I've updated the PR to sort the deployment object model dump JSON objects by the job full name to make sure the jobs themselves are in the same order each time. However small variations may be present anyway due to issues like the above.

We could make sure these directory paths are sorted to make them more deterministic. But that's for another PR. For the moment this mechanism seems good enough.
