Description

The run action is super usefull, however, it might be even more usefull with a some kind of history?

Use case:
I run a test suggested by Ctrl+R and I can rerun it while working on the tested function.
Then I run another test by Ctrl+R, but I lost the capability to rerun the first test.

Also, if a test is runned by clicking, it does not appear in the rerun option. Is that a bug? Or just not implemented?

Research direction

Start by tracing the run action, the Ctrl+R rerun option, and the click-to-run path in rust-analyzer. Determine how the current rerun entry is stored and whether both invocation paths share it. Done means defining the desired history behavior and ensuring previously run tests remain available for rerun.
