Description

It would be nice if we could run the test suite for a single test case via command line argument.

Example:

lua tests.lua --id:2200

parinfer.js has this and it is useful for debugging.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Look at the current test runner in tests.lua and add CLI argument parsing (e.g., using Lua's arg table) to filter tests by ID. Model after parinfer.js implementation if available.
