Description
It would be a useful addition to allow a user to specify any flux directive under allocation_args. This would give a user flexibility and a more rapid response to newly added flux directives. An example of this is the flux directive --coral2-hugepages

Research direction
Start by tracing how allocation_args is parsed and converted into Flux directives, using the existing handling of --coral2-hugepages as the concrete example. Check the workflow allocation entry point and related tests, if present. Done means users can pass arbitrary Flux directives through allocation_args without requiring a code change for each new directive.
