Add CLI curated test suites

- add core test --suite aliases for smoke, runtime, cognition, teaching, packs, algebra, and full lanes
- preserve direct pytest passthrough through core test -- ...
- add core test --list-suites
- add focused CLI tests for suite listing, suite expansion, and passthrough
