Description

The status page currently shows the last N benchmarking runs. However, if there are some errors, these can vanish from this list quite quickly, making it harder for us to find them.

It would be better if it also showed (separately) the last N errors. The code for getting the run list is here.

Research direction

Start by reading site/src/request_handlers/status_page.rs around the linked run-list code. Trace how the status page obtains and renders the last N benchmarking runs, then add a separate last N errors list without removing the existing list. Done means the status page displays both recent runs and recent errors.
