Description
When running yath in parallel, at the end it leaves a .jsonl.bz2 file behind with a pretty long name,
would be cool to use a symlink last to the last run one
so replay could then be simpler
yath replay test-logs/last 1234
or even
yath last-replay 1234

Research direction
Start by locating the yath handling for completed run files and the replay entry point. Check how parallel runs produce the .jsonl.bz2 file and how yath replay resolves its input. Done means a last symlink points to the most recent run and supports the proposed yath replay test-logs/last 1234 usage.
