Description

A field should be added to checks so that you can have a filter to import it or not. This filter should not be binary, but a list of tags, so that different types of reviews can be performed, either with different depths, focus areas or approaches.

A possibility would be adding the field `topics` as a list, which could contain values such as `design`, `implementation`, `alz`, etc.

Each checklist client would then decide whether importing all `topics`, or just a subset.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the check definitions and the checklist clients that import them, then trace how checks are selected. Done means checks can declare a list of topics and clients can select all topics or a subset without losing existing imports.
