Adds experimental sideloading support for pusshift.io style reddit data. This dataset is limited to data older than 2023, due to licensing changes making large-scale data extraction difficult. Since the median post quality on reddit is not very good, he sideloader will only load a subset of self-texts and top-level comments that have sufficiently many upvotes. Empirically this appears to mostly return good matches, even if it probably could index more. Tests were written for this, but all require local reddit data which can't be distributed with the source code. If these can not be found, the tests will shortcircuit as OK. They're mostly there for debugging, and it's fine if they don't always run. The change also refactors the sideloading a bit since it was a bit messy. |

The executor service is a partitioned service responsible for executing and keeping track of long running maintenance and operational tasks, such as crawling or data processing.
It accomplishes this using the message queue and actor library, which permits program state to survive crashes and reboots. The executor service is closely linked to the control-service, which provides a user interface for much of the executor's functionality.
