Add Slurm run and DSE results to experiment output

[podkidyshev]

Summary

• Add Slurm run status, UTC timing, and workload metrics to experiment.json. Workload success uses was_run_successful(); metrics use metric_observations().
• Fill test-level metrics from a single successful normal run. For DSE, record the search space, best configuration, best step, and that step's metrics.
• Retain completed results after failure or cancellation and finalize unresolved records as unknown.

Test Plan

• Automated CI.
• Manual Slurm runs on one node with eight H100 GPUs: normal NCCL and two-step NCCL and NIXL DSE. Downloaded artifacts were checked locally for workload success, metric values, UTC timing, and DSE selection against the recorded rewards.
• Manual Slurm dry-run generated batch scripts without submitting jobs.
• After adding test-level metrics, replayed the output code locally against those artifacts: 36 measurements for normal NCCL, 36 for the winning NCCL DSE step, and 12 for the winning NIXL DSE step.

Additional Notes

Stacked on #1030 (ipod/unified-output). Single-sbatch run output is handled in #1041.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change expands experiment output for standalone, DSE, and Slurm runs. It adds status finalization, DSE candidate publication, Slurm timing and metric handling, UTC timestamp retrieval, validation tests, and reporting updates.

Changes

Experiment output and execution results

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Output lifecycle and metric contracts src/cloudai/output.py, src/cloudai/_core/base_runner.py, src/cloudai/systems/standalone/standalone_runner.py, tests/test_output.py, doc/reporting.rst	Shared metric conversion now supports output records. Finalization marks unfinished runs as unknown and propagates test outcomes. Shutdown can produce a cancelled experiment. Reporting documents run and DSE output fields.
DSE candidate selection and publication src/cloudai/configurator/cloudai_gym.py, src/cloudai/cli/handlers.py, tests/test_handlers.py	DSE candidates are filtered for valid rewards and observations, ranked by reward, and published before and after agent execution. Tests cover selection, persistence, failures, and tied or invalid rewards.
Slurm run result construction src/cloudai/systems/slurm/slurm_runner.py, src/cloudai/systems/slurm/slurm_job.py, src/cloudai/systems/slurm/slurm_system.py, src/cloudai/systems/slurm/single_sbatch_runner.py, tests/systems/slurm/*	Slurm runs now expose status, metrics, timing, metadata, iteration, and step values. sacct uses UTC timestamps. Tests cover successful, failed, cancelled, untimed, and metric-failure cases.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~30 minutes

Change: Feature

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to bb701

Single-sbatch executions omit status, timing, and metrics from experiment.json. Implement the mapping or disable the mode before merging.

In `@doc/reporting.rst`:
- Around line 39-41: Update the scenario and test-case documentation near the
description of tests[].runs to state that records are not emitted for
--single-sbatch executions because SingleSbatchRunner.get_run_output() currently
returns None; clarify this exclusion remains until single-sbatch output support
is available.

In `@src/cloudai/_core/base_runner.py`:
- Line 117: Update BaseRunner shutdown handling to mark each job killed by
shutdown as shutdown-cancelled, rather than relying on self.shutting_down. In
StandaloneRunner.get_run_output() and SlurmRunner.get_run_output(), map that
per-job marker to cancelled while preserving failures recorded before shutdown
as failed.
