Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I don't always want to run diffs against my last dbt run. I'd like to choose what to diff

Describe the solution you'd like
Support selecting models using dbt syntax

e.g. data-diff --dbt --select model+

• runs diff against model and any downstream models
