    Add a "regression" mode to both the old assign_wrapper and the new · ecb66ab5

    mapper wrapper. In regression mode, the wrapper/mapper proceeds
    normally, creating a .vtop file, and then running assign with a fixed
    seed. If the wrapper and the mapper agree on the .vtop file, then the
    solution from assign should be identical.
    
    The wrapper/mapper then proceeds normally, reserving resources and
    making all the DB changes. Needless to say, this has to be on a
    private copy of the database, with all nodes free. Creating that DB
    was a tale in its own right.
    
    At completion, call the existing BackupPhysicalState() function that
    we use in swapmod, and write all the physical tables we have changed
    (just the rows corresponding to the experiment of course). The delete
    all that state, and free the nodes.
    
    If everything is working correctly, those physical tables should be
    identical when created by the mapper or the wrapper.
    
    Of course, its not quite there yet. I have a few things to fix up
    before diff -r produces no results.
