We want AkitaRTM to support step-through mode.

User Interface

The image above is the current version of AkitaRTM's time control feature. We want to add a dropdown button to the right-most part to expand it to a small panel, as shown in the interface below. The user can select step length by inputting the number and unit (ns, us, ms, s). It defaults to 1ns.

AkitaRTM API

One API needs to be added to AkitaRTM's backend. Please refer to this file for the API implementation. https://github.com/sarchlab/akita/blob/main/monitoring/monitor.go

The frontend needs to issue HTTP request to the backend when the step button is clicked. The related code should be able to find here https://github.com/sarchlab/akita/blob/main/monitoring/web/src/engine_control.ts.

Akita Engine API support

We need to add an API to the Akita's Engine (https://github.com/sarchlab/akita/blob/main/sim/engine.go) interface. We can add a SetRunUntilTime. The engine's Run method should return if this time is achieved. We need to support this feature in the serial engine and parallel engine implementation.
