Climatemachine.jl: Save parameters used by CliMA in output
Description
Would it be useful to automatically dump all the parameters actually used by ClimateMachine.jl into output?
Right now we overwrite the default CliMAParameters.jl in the experiment setup files (like for example here: https://github.com/CliMA/ClimateMachine.jl/pull/1564/files#diff-bbbc555ecaca9e76512a1f7f71b1d6d1eddb789644c982507113f927f4eca0daR45-R53, thank you @charleskawczynski ).
And with this approach, looking at the CLIMAParameters.jl branch used in the simulation will not give the correct answer.
It's not a problem now. But as more people start experimenting with the model and changing their default parameters, it may become useful/needed. @kpamnany , @charleskawczynski - Any thoughts?

Yes! Good point. We should have log files collecting all important settings for a run, including parameters.

Agree also. I was imagining something like this working bi-directionally so that you could ask to use the settings from a log for a new run.
