2025-03-24rv: Add option for nested monitors and include schedGabriele Monaco
Monitors describing complex systems, such as the scheduler, can easily grow to the point where they are just hard to understand because of the many possible state transitions. Often it is possible to break such descriptions into smaller monitors, sharing some or all events. Enabling those smaller monitors concurrently is, in fact, testing the system as if we had one single larger monitor. Splitting models into multiple specification is not only easier to understand, but gives some more clues when we see errors. Add the possibility to create container monitors, whose only purpose is to host other nested monitors. Enabling a container monitor enables all nested ones, but it's still possible to enable nested monitors independently. Add the sched monitor as first container, for now empty.
