Description
### Feature request
Support for slice splits in `datasets.load_from_disk`, similar to how it's already supported for `datasets.load_dataset`.
### Motivation
Slice splits are convienient in a numer of cases - adding support to `datasets.load_from_disk` would make working with local datasets easier and homogenize the APIs of load_from_disk and load_dataset.
### Your contribution
Sure, if the devs think the feature request is sensible.
