 Model checking:
+ - Stateless model-checking is now usable on any system, including Mac OSX and ARM processors.
+ - The stateless aspects of the MC are now enabled by default in all SimGrid builds.
+   Liveness and stateful aspects are still controled by the enabling_model-checking

+ - Introducing ODPOR and SDPOR reduction strategies
+ - Introducing guiding heuristics, trying to find bugs faster than DFS in reduced state space.
  - Synchronize the MBI tests with upstream.
  - Show the full actor bactraces when replaying a MC trace (with model-check/replay)
    and the status of all actors on deadlocks in MC mode.
