Squishing only certain migrations by date or range

[JoshSalway]

Squishing migrations as mentioned in the Laravel docs could be improved to allow developers to squish certain migrations in a range. For example, perhaps you have old migrations you would like to squish but the newer ones you may want to keep. Also, certain migrations are useful to keep together in 1 file when you create 4 new migrations and are about to commit changes.

This command could contain flags for dates or specific migrations to merge between:
php artisan schema:dump --prune

Agree. Although a simple command should be possible to allow 'everything before ' as that is probably the most used use case.
