Description

we should figure a acceptable serialization

a initial idea is to put it in as something like

{"gateway": { "id" : node.gateway.id, "spec": node.gateway.spec}}

Research direction

Start by reading the report.node implementation and the linked pytest-html issues #591, #592, and #593 to reproduce how its current value affects serialization. Compare the proposed gateway id/spec shape with the affected consumers and define a serialization format that works for pytest-html and possibly reportlog, with tests or reproductions showing the data can be consumed reliably.
