Description

As a user
When I inspect the trace
I'd like to be able to
fold the children blocks I am not interested in (so that only narrow ribbon with block name is shown without details under it)
and to unfold the previously folded children blocks if I want to
ideally doing it by clicking on the narrow ribbon with block name for both folding and unfolding

Research direction

Start by opening the trace view shown in the sample AppMap and comparing it with the attached screenshot. Add a way to fold and unfold child blocks by clicking their narrow block-name ribbon, leaving only the ribbon visible when folded; done means both actions work in the trace view.
