[dvsim] Split Deploy into Deploy and Launcher

In this commit, the act of launching and communicating with the job
while it is still running is split out into a separate class called
'Launcher'. It does the job of maintaining the running environment
(creating dirs, launching the sub-process, providing APIs to communicate
with the running job) of a dispatched job.

The Deploy class is reduced to just maintaing a generic runnable job. It
creates the launcher as a child object, allowing Scheduler to access the
launcher's methods. The Deploy class and its extensions are also
significantly refactored (general cleanup) to further simplify how the
instance members are set.

The Launcher class is meant to be an abstract class providing high level
APIs that each variant needs to implement, in addition to proving
general housekeeping functions. The LocalLauncher class extends from it,
providing the launching mechanism locally within the user's workstation
(spawn child processes upto a given limit). This will be followed up by
LSFLauncher and GCPLauncher in subsequent commits / PRs, which can be
chosen based on a switch.

The reason for making this split is to cleanly add support for various
backend compute dispatch systems to which jobs can be launched, such as
LSF and GCP.
