This commit addresses an issue where the script would crash if a new solution had the same name as a previous one, since the Google Sheets API does not allow multiple sheets with the same name. To resolve this, the code now checks if a sheet with the same name already exists in the spreadsheet, and if so, appends a unique identifier (a timestamp) to the sheet name before creating it. This ensures that each sheet has a unique name and prevents the script from crashing. Changes include: * Modifying the `write_workplan` function in `gsheets.py` to check if a sheet with the same name already exists in the spreadsheet. * Appending a unique identifier (a timestamp) to the sheet name if a sheet with the same name already exists. * Updating the logger messages to reflect the new behavior. This change should improve the reliability of the script and prevent crashes due to duplicate sheet names.
