Configuration

[davidjgoss]

Currently there are no configuration options for cucumber-node - everything hangs off what node --test does from its own arguments.

But we'll need some configuration options sooner or later. Examples:

• Filter by tag expression #9
• Specify support code location(s) #10

It's fair to assume that users will want to:

• Have some options that always apply, in a file
• Override those options run-by-run, sometimes

As with other things, we want to lean into Node.js conventions and not reinvent the wheel. So environment variables seem like the way to go - they can be set externally or from a script, but also Node.js has first-class support for one or more .env files to cover the persistent case.
