Lina JodoinandGitHub a646b2d5ef [Scheduler] Introduce EventLog for internal history (#10258)
I'm sending the review for the mechanism (and an example callsite), and
I'll send out a review that makes use of it throughout the scheduler
code afterwards.

## What changed?
- CHASM scheduler components each parent a new EventLog component, which
we'll use to record decision logic details that are normally too spammy
for logs.
- No plan to expose this through any APIs just yet; it isn't meant to be
customer-facing (though, I am thinking about how we can make it easy for
dev success to get at)

## Why?
- V1 debugging was often done through use of the workflow's event
history; without an analogue for V2, it's difficult to get a clear
picture of how the logic arrived at a certain output state.
- Info logging in the same capacity would likely be too spammy for our
observability system.
- It's difficult to trace a complete picture for an individual schedule
*over time* using just Loki. Schedules are often long-lived, with state
transitions taking place in short blips over periods of days or weeks.
Being able to get a complete list on demand for a relevant scheduler
will greatly improve debugging time.

## How did you test it?
- [ ] built
- [ ] run locally and tested manually
- [ ] covered by existing tests
- [x] added new unit test(s)
- [ ] added new functional test(s)

## Potential risks
- This could increase scheduler state size, however:
- V2 already measures notably lighter on storage than V1 (not to
mention, no event history data whatsoever)
- Log is bounded to max 30 messages per component (usually scheduler,
generator, invoker) of max 1000 characters each (e.g., ~100KB), as a
safety mechanism
- Most messages logged will be small and informational, not large state
dumps (e.g., "scheduler unpaused", "generator scheduled for ...").
- Backfillers each get their own log, which shares a Backfiller's
lifecycle.
