Goal: shorten toml config files

Assignments are often composed of several tasks, eg. h1/ex1 h1/ex2 etc.

@bomingzh has added a stage.base_case_dir option which saves the definition of each test case. however the rest of the config still needs to be copy/pasted (eg. compile or cq stages)

having an option include = [ "ex1", "ex2", "ex3" ] would make things way easier/faster/more flexible and less prone to copy/paste mistakes.

at least for simple configuration setups this would likely mean

cat the task level toml config files
drop a few lines, eg. name
adjust the path of test cases (and possibly other task specific files? (not sure if there is any course having such files))
