Support for include directive in tabs

[JSS95]

Context

Sphinx's include directive allows including the entire code from another file.

.. include:: my/code.py
   :code: python

It would be nice if we had this feature in code tabs.

Proposal

Propsal A: allow include nested in code-tab

.. tabs::

   .. code-tab::

      .. include:: my/code.py
         :code: python

Proposal B: add :include: option to code-tab

.. tabs::

   .. code-tab::
      :include: my/code.py

Thanks for getting in touch!

Please could you try using 'include' within a normal 'tab' directive, instead of a 'code-tab'?

The 'code-tab' puts all of the content within a code block, which can't be nested in. I believe that 'include' creates its own code block, so using it in a normal tab should give the desired result. Please let me know if this doesn't work 😄

Thank you, @foster999. That worked!
I think it would be good to have this documented so I opened #173.
