We should try to figure out a way to figure out which files are reftests without having to parse *every* test file (which could be kinda slow).

If that is specified, all CSSWG reftests under the dedicated directory are run. Ai-san, the intern, will try to do it from the next week.

I'm OK with this solution. We also don't need to know if a test is a reftest until after we've run the test. So, if we provide the appropriate DRT hooks, it should work fine, no?
