Add presets for highly complex communities

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. For generic questions use Q&A section in the Discussions forum above.

You can specify the k-mers and other parameters in metaSPAdes. It would be really useful if there were some presets for certain types of communities like complex soil communities or similar with best practices determined by the SPAdes group.

Describe the solution you'd like

MEGAHIT has some like --presets meta-large which increases the performance for complex metagenomes. It would be great if metaSPAdes had a similar feature.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Experimenting with k-mers in metaSPAdes or using MEGAHIT
