Entity slicing: Support loading of particular elements in sets #1198

Cedar language or syntax features/changes

Describe the feature you'd like to request

1171 supports loading only some ancestors of entities. However, cedar sets may be just as large as the entity hierarchy. We should extend the entity manifest to have another field which loads particular elements of sets.

I may run out of time to implement this feature before my internship is over, so writing here for posterity.

Describe alternatives you've considered
