Issue
Generalize the code to handle multiple agent types

Task

Change init_agents function in core.py so that it creates an agent of each type passed to it.
This requires deciding how to pass in the agent types as data.

@PaoloBova mentioned some approaches:

(i) A list of agent classes (one per agent)
(ii) A map of agent ids to agent classes
(iii) A map of agent classes to number of agents of that class
(iv) Create the agents and then pass a list of agents as data to the simulation function (if doing this, the init_agents function can be skipped (in this case I'd tentatively suggest making it so that the init_agents function returns the already created agents)

We should also consider how to save the class of each agent (and number of agents of each class) to our results data.

Acceptance Criteria

This task is complete if we can successfully run a script which saves data for a simulation involving multiple agent classes.
