Description

https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/46629 changed the inlining of const GlobalRef, that caused the failures of the irshow test cases.
We should rather enable this test only on nightly, and maybe also want to enable tests for effects-related rendering.

Research direction

Start by locating test_irshow.jl and the test configuration that controls when it runs. Review the existing irshow cases and the Julia nightly requirement, then run the relevant test command to confirm the test is enabled only as intended and that any effects-related rendering cases are covered.
