In GitLab CI, render Cake tasks as collapsible sections

Extend module for GitLab CI with a custom CakeEngine that makes adds collapsible sections to the GitLab CI log (analogous to the groups in GitHubActionsEngine)

For reference on the collapsible sections in GitLab CI, refer to https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/yaml/script.html#custom-collapsible-sections
