Adds the VS Code Run button to circuit files so that the Q# project they are a part of can be run or debugged while looking at a circuit file. Also adds a command that the Run button can use for running just the circuit file and producing a dump machine for the circuit. This new functionality is available even if the circuit is not part of a Q# project. The Run Circuit File command has been removed and will be part of a separate future PR.

Let's discuss design before proceeding with this. In general, I'm not sure the Run / Debug drop-down is the right place to add this functionality. compared to just a "Run" button in the editor or something. I'm not sure putting it in there is that discoverable or convenient (I'm guessing/hoping F5 still runs the project and not the circuit?)

Does it integrate with actual debugging (i.e. can you step through the circuit and see quantum state evolve)?
