Description

When I run pytest -ra path/to/flaky/tests, I expect rerun tests to be listed, but they aren't. I would this is because 'R' is not something that pytest know about.

This can be worked around using pytest -raR path/to/flaky/tests, but it would be nice if -ra automatically included 'R' tests as well.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported commands, pytest -ra path/to/flaky/tests and pytest -raR path/to/flaky/tests, using the pytest-rerunfailures plugin. Done means rerun tests are listed with -ra alone while preserving the existing behavior of explicitly adding R.
