Feature request: table names for tblrtikzabove #627

Description

@tcmotter

I am trying to use tblrtikzabove to draw lines in a tblr that has a tblr inside of it. Specifically, I want a tikz line from cell 2-2 to 4-2 of the big table, which has a few 1-column tables inside various cells. I get the following error: "No shape named `2-2' is known." I presume this means that the last tblr used for the tikz coordinates is one of the small inner ones, and it can't point to the nodes in the big table.

The solution I'm thinking of would allow me to add a name to the table which I can specify in the tikz portion to make sure it picks that table. E.g.: \draw (big-2-2) -- (big-4-2);

Something of this sort was already deployed for drawing lines between two tables, as detailed in this post. But there, each table can have its own non-interfering tblrtikzabove. In my use case, it is not possible to separate them like this because the small tables are inside the larger one.
