Allow setting terragrunt cli options in terragrunt.hcl #1933

We have sections where we know running run-all plan without --terragrunt-parallelism could have fatal consequences. It would be great if I could set terragrunt cli options in our terragrunt.hcl config file to add a safe default. Sorry if this is a known feature. I spend some time reviewing docs and issues, and was unable to find any info pertaining to this.

Hmm I'm not sure this would make intuitive sense to put in a terragrunt.hcl config, since terragrunt.hcl is typically a local scoped configuration, while --terragrunt-parallelism is a global scope configuration.

I think what is necessary here would be a .terragruntrc file, similar to .terraformrc, which we don't currently have, but seems useful.
