Draft: feat: Support loading AdditionalContext from file
What does this MR do and why?
This MR adds a convenient way to "inject" a list of additional context elements to the DWS through the Executor. The JSON array of contexts can be passed in multiple ways via a file to the Executor, and it gets sent to the DWS via the StartWorkflowRequest.

cmd/debug-server.go -
Create a file with a valid AdditonalContext (see the additional_context.md doc for examples)
-
Start the Executor (make sure it points at the right
base-pathand the rightserver)
--goal='test'
--insecure
--debug
--workflow-id=1
--token=your-gl-token
--base-url=http://gdk.test:3000
--user-id=1
--namespace-id=1
--project-id=1000000
--feature-enabled-by-namespace-ids=1000000
--base-path=.
--server=127.0.0.1:50052
--additional-context-path=<path to the file from step 2>
- Validate the StartWorkflowRequest in the debug server's log contains the expected additional context.
