@vlstill Could you give this a review? This is a rather major change to the way options work for P4Testgen but is required to fix issues with using the tool as a library. |

This is a larger rewrite of the core parts of P4Testgen's target initialization. The goal is to fix several problems when trying to use P4Testgen and other tools as a library. We need to make sure that the CompileContext we are accessing is the correct one.
We decouple initialization of the options and the initialization of the target. This way we can initialize a target before we even know which options we need. This means we can make the options target-dependent (e.g., different options for BMv2, Tofino, etc). This can be really nice for usability since we can create bespoke options per target.
To reduce the amount of random static objects floating around we fold P4ToolsOptions and the CompilerOptions together. There is no reason why need two classes here.
Options are only accessed by passing them along or retrieving them from the context stack. Ideally, we get rid of the context stack entirely but this requires a lot more work.
