Mlcommons Ck Versions Save

• Important change: we added automatic CM repo alias from mlcommons@ck to mlcommons@cm4mlops unless branch and checkout are used!
• we improved CM python package API generation and uploaded it here - we will move it to MLCommons when ready!
• we added timezone to utils.get_current_date_time to correctly time stamp various experiments!
