Bug Description

For some tests, it is required to have exactly one pair of agents, and it is desired to place them separate compute nodes, if more than one compute node is available.

There is no way to specify this using the existing accommodation parameters.

This works if you have more than two computes, but fails with only a single compute:

[pair, single_room, compute_nodes: 2]

More generally, under some circumstances it would be useful to request a target number of compute nodes, but to allow fallback to whatever is available.

It would better if we had a knob to allow this type of fallback behavior.

    Add support for best-effort accommodations

    Adds a new accommodation instruction 'best_effort' that allows the
    deployment to proceed even if the number of available compute nodes
    is less than what was requested.

    For example, this will create a single pair of agents on separate
    compute nodes if possible, but will fall back to creating them on
    the same compute node if only one is available:

    accommodation: pair, single_room, best_effort, compute_nodes: 2
