Add basic validations to ForwardModelStepPlugin such as executable exists
What happened? (You can include a screenshot if it helps explain)
A user can create a ForwardModelStepPlugin to use in Ert with a bad path to an executable, and this will not be validated before it blows up mid run.
Discuss whether we should add this validation or not, or whether this is Ert's responsibility in the ForwardModelStepPlugin
constructor, or the FM implementor's responsibility through the ForwardModelStepPlugin.validate_pre_experiment(...)
api.
It should at most be a warning, because there can be forward models preceding this one that creates the necessary files/executables.
See previous discussion under PR: https://github.com/equinor/ert/pull/8735
What did you expect to happen?
Warning if a non existent executable is provided, with a explanation that it might be ok
steps to reproduce
Create a forward model step plugin with a bad executable.
