Description
Sometimes it's useful to print out the logs even if a test succeeds for debugging purposes. It would be useful to have a flag that can be passed as a command line argument to `cabal test` that forces all of the `logDoc` messages to always be printed.

Research direction
Start by tracing how `cabal test` arguments reach the test runner and where `logDoc` messages are currently emitted or suppressed. Add a command-line flag that enables those messages for successful tests, then verify that normal output remains unchanged without the flag and that successful tests print their logs when it is enabled.
