Description
Feature
Add an option to specify junit xml testsuite name. For example --junit-xml-name or --junit-suite-name .
Pitch
Currently, mypy just writes the generic testsuite name "mypy".
In a CI with multiple mypy invocations, this is not specific enough to quickly get an overview of which package is failing.

Research direction
Start by locating mypy's JUnit XML output generation and command-line option handling. Define how the new option supplies a testsuite name for separate mypy invocations, then verify that the generated XML uses the configured name while retaining the existing default.
