I was trying to debug MVCC simulator and database diffs, and this change
makes it much easier to visualize this. This PR is just a small quality
of life upgrade for debugability.

Closes#3548
our AWS nightly sim looks for a line 'simulation failed:' in the process
output to capture context for the github issues it creates.
if the sim passes otherwise but integrity check fails, then this log line
must also be present there, otherwise the aws sim will panic due to not finding
a suitable line.
* Without tracing crate we cannot log anything that happens in
limbo_core
* IO never ran in step loop inside simulator.
* Added update queries (which currently loop forever for some reason I'm
debugging).
The current status of the PR is halfway. The new framing of simulation
runner where `setup_simulation` is separated from `run_simulation`
allows for injecting custom plans easily. The PR is currently missing
the functionality to update the `SimulatorEnv` ad hoc from the plan, as
the environment tables were typically created during the planning phase.
The next steps will be to implement a function `fn
mk_env(InteractionPlan, SimulatorEnv) -> SimulatorEnv`, add `--load`
flag to the CLI for loading a serialized plan file, making a
corresponding environment and running the simulation.
We can optionally combine this with a `--save` option, in which we keep
a seed-vault as part of limbo simulator, corresponding each seed with
its generated plan and save the time to regenerate existing seeds by
just loading them into memory. I am curious to hear thoughts on this?
Would the maintainers be open to adding such a seed-vault? Do you think
the saved time would be worth the complexity of the approach?

Closes#720
- add `--watch` flag
- start saving seeds in persistent storage
- make a separate version of execution functions that use `vector of interaction` instead of `InteractionPlan`
