    Sets up the container, sets up logging, and starts the CompetitionControl service.
    A simple script file can be used in lieu of a web interface to configure and run games. Each line in the file must be in one of two forms:
    bootstrap [--config boot-config]
    sim [--config sim-config] broker1 broker2 ...
    where
    
    boot-config
    
    is the optional name of a properties file that specifies the bootstrap setup. If not provided, then the default server.properties will be used.
    
    sim-config
    
    is the optional name of a properties file that specifies the simulation setup. If not provided, then the default server.properties file will be used. It is possible for the sim-config to be different from the boot-config that produced the bootstrap data file used in the sim, but many properties will be carried over from the bootstrap session regardless of the contents of sim-config.
    
    brokern
    
    are the broker usernames of the brokers that will be logged in before the simulation starts. They must attempt to log in after the server starts.
    
    To use a configuration file, simply give the filename as a command-line argument.
