Hashcode 2021 qualification round simulator and a variety of solvers.

Simulator is 100% accurate (tested against the hashcode simulator at the time of the event)

Solvers

Included are a variety of solvers:

• GeneticSolver: A genetic algorithm approach for solving hashcode. Utilises a Redis server to distribute the workload across multiple machines. redis_worker.py should be run to consume tasks from this server
• ActiveStreetSolver: A simple solver that sets the traffic light timings to be even on all streets with cars traveling on them at some point
• BusiestPrioritySolver: Same as the ActiveStreetSolver but weighted towards streets with more cars.
