sim: Add an option to forward work items to Python

There are cases where we want the Python world to handle work items
instead of the C++ world. However, that's currently not possible. This
changeset adds the forward_work_items option to the System class. Then
it is set to True, work items will generate workbegin/workend
simulation exists with the work item ID as the exit code and the old
C++ handling is completely bypassed.
