Fullsystem Flag Compatibility

[Andrewyx]

Description of the task

Since the RuntimeMangager RFC, we introduced the ability the interchange AI backends. One problem currently is that the trying to swap in older generations of our AI backend fails due to missing fullsystem flags in older models.

For example:

        self.full_system = "{} --runtime_dir={} {} {}".format(
            self.path_to_binary,
            self.full_system_runtime_dir,
            "--friendly_colour_yellow" if self.friendly_colour_yellow else "",
            "--ci" if not self.running_in_realtime else "",
            # self.log_level.value, THIS IS A NEW FLAG
        )

Without removing this flag, we the binaries will not run. Hence, we should implement some smart way to omit these flags if they are compatible.

There is a way to fix this that works for all binaries. We can have a subprocess before launching external binaries that uses the --help flag to discover available flags and store them into a set. And when we actually launch the binaries we compare each flag to the set and see if it exist or not, then append the existing flags to the launch command. What do you think about this.
