Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Debugging workflows steps is hard. Specially when we want to know what steps are taking long time or failing.

Describe the solution you'd like
Create a workflow run detailed view, where we could see what step started at what time, and how long it took to complete. Inngest.js example below:

Describe alternatives you've considered

Additional context
I can take care of this as a first contribution. I am not sure the cli / backend can provide the necessary information already. If it can't I will also need to implement this.

Research direction

Start by tracing the existing dashboard workflow-run view and checking whether the CLI or backend already exposes step timing, completion, and failure data. Done means a workflow run has a detailed view showing each step's start time, duration, and failure state, with the necessary data supplied if it is not already available.
