Describe the bug

The current Terragrunt documentation, specifically the section on the skip attribute here, stipulates that this flag must be explicitly set within Terragrunt modules that are intended to be skipped. This implies that the configuration will not be inherited from include blocks. Despite this being clearly documented, it appears to contradict the merging concept supported by the include block.

From a user's standpoint, it would be beneficial to have the ability to inherit this flag/attribute, similar to how many other attributes are inherited. Is there a specific rationale behind the distinct treatment of this attribute that I may be overlooking?

Steps To Reproduce

Create a partial terragrunt hcl file

partial.hcl

locals {
  module_path_parts = split("/", path_relative_to_include())
  module_base_path  = local.module_path_parts[0]
  module_name       = join("_", slice(local.module_path_parts, 1, length(local.module_path_parts)))
}

skip = !endswith(local.module_name, "_account_layer")

Include the partial file in a live module

partial.hcl

include {
  path   = find_in_parent_folders("partial.hcl")
  expose = true
}

Expected behavior

As you can see, the skip in the partial terragrunt file does not contain a simple true or false, it contains a more advanced logic that I would like to inherit in included modules, without having to duplicate the logic there, currently that is not possible because the skip attribute is not included.
