Description

Allows users to run a workflow in a sandbox.

Questions

A few things aren't clear on this issue.

  1. When a user is on a workflow in a project that has no sandbox. Do we create a new sandbox to be able to run in sandbox?
  2. If the project already has a sandbox. There's high probability the sandbox has diverged(maybe doesn't contain this specific workflow anymore). Hence, how do we actually run the workflow in sandbox?

cc: @theroinaochieng @brandonjackson and maybe @josephjclark on suggestions

__
I'm also thinking. Do we show this options when the project has a sandbox with the same workflow that hasn't diverged?

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by resolving whether a sandbox should be created when absent and how an existing or diverged sandbox should run the workflow; define the expected behavior for matching and non-matching workflows before implementation. Done means the sandbox-run option and its behavior are specified for these cases.
