- Enhance NicObservation for detailed NMNE event monitoring.
- Add nmne_config options to simulation settings for customizable NMNE capturing.
- Update documentation and tests for new NMNE features and simulation config.
## Summary
- Made the data manipulation red agent be able to choose between the two clients to start operating on
- changed the attacker name in the config to 'data_manipulation_attacker' to because it is no longer tied to any client
- Updated the documentation notebook accordingly.
- Fixed a bug where the database client made a new connection every time it sent a SQL query (it tries to reuse its most recent one instead)
- Fixed a bug where link loads were not being cleared between episodes (?)
**warning** - the green agents are not working properly after reset right now, but I'm gonna fix this in the next ticket where I refactor episode reset.
## Test process
- unit tests pass
- UC2 notebook passes with both clients. (currently this doesn't work after an episode reset, but the very next thing I'm gonna work on is refactoring the reset, so I don't want to waste time fixing this.)

## Summary
- Refactor Simulator state to use service/application name instead of UUID, and node hostname instead of UUID.
- Refactor observations to read the hostname/name instead of UUID.
- Refactor rewards as well.
- Refactor configs to specify name instead of reference that will be translated to UUID.
## Test process
Existing unit tests pass. Inspected the printout from running 'describe_state' on arcd_uc2_network' to verify that names are used to report state.
