Description

Originally reported on Google Code with ID 157

Should provide a new property on SpecInfo that tells if a spec needs to be run sequentially.
This property should be set by StepWiseExtension and read by OptimizeRunOrdeExtension.
Need to be careful about ordering issues (can the former run after the latter?).

Research direction

Start by reading SpecInfo, StepWiseExtension, and OptimizeRunOrdeExtension to understand how spec ordering is currently represented and changed. Trace the ordering interaction between Stepwise specs and optimizeRunOrder, including which extension should run first. Done means Stepwise specs retain their required sequential order when optimization is enabled, with the ordering cases covered by the relevant tests.
