Redesign policy running (#6609)

# Description of Changes Redesign policy running so the server is in charge of policy IDs and running, to make it impossible to have the frontend miss the results. This solves a minor bug that we currently have in policies, where if you load a file and then refresh while the policy is running, you'll never receive the outputted file.
