Description
It would be nice to be able to change the transformer configuration from a comment in the file.
For instance, for some test case I want a different alignment width than the default I could use.
```robot
*** TestCases *** # robotidy: configAlignKeywordsSection:widths=10
My First Test
No Operation
# robotidy: configAlignKeywordsSection:widths=20
My Second Test
No Operation
My Third Test
No Operation
```

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named in the issue. Start by locating transformer configuration handling and comment parsing, then trace how configuration is scoped while formatting a file. Done means the documented comment forms can override transformer settings for the intended following section or test case without changing unrelated formatting.
