Add MaterializeIfSomeParentsUpdated AutoMaterializeRule

[ion-elgreco]

What's the use case?

Usually I have assets which have multiple upstream asset inputs. I want to be able to materialize them only if at least some subset of the upstream assets collectively got updated. The requirement is not on all assets, just a subset.

As far as I can see it's not possible to do this yet.

Ideas of implementation

Add new rule, where you can specify the asset names.

If we need to specify the asset key, it's very important when doing load_assets_from_modules that also the asset keys in this rule will be prefixed with the key when provided.

We often have all assets without a prefix until runtime, when we prefix them with the current branch.
