Improved run_nightly_tests.sh:

- Added support for test directory filtering with --filter option.
- Enhanced error handling for missing test directories and commands.
- Refined environment setup with checks for virtual environment and dependencies.
- Improved readability of test execution logs with optional output suppression and clearer messages.
