I'm exploring some UI to make tests look better in already-busy
scenarios, like Copilot edits. We've long had these big inline message
decorations which get very noisy quickly, especially with word wrap on.
I'm exploring these smaller 'badge' type indicators. These are shown in
at most one place per test and their content length is very limited.
Clicking on them opens the traditional test error peek. Because I feel
like they are easier to see and more inviting to click, I turned off the
default behavior of opening the error peek. Making any edits in the test
case will dismiss the badge.

Closes #233028
