Description
Currently when running tests with --dist loadgroup any tests not tagged for loadgroup.
Are then distributed normally as in the --dist load mode.
It would be great if we would specify the second option e.g. use --dist loadfile insteadof --dist load` mode.

Research direction
Start by tracing how the --dist loadgroup, --dist loadfile, and --dist load modes are parsed and selected. Define the expected fallback behavior for tests without loadgroup tags, then add coverage showing that a specified second mode is used; the issue names no files or existing tests.
