Description
In https://github.com/web-platform-tests/interop/issues/319 there was a problem with "PRECONDITION_FAILED" in some WebCodecs tests.
I think the conclusion is that we can't have tests like these in Interop, because there's no good way to score them.
We should have a system for finding such tests and periodically review it. It could be as simple as a (very long) wpt.fyi query.

Research direction
Read the related discussion in https://github.com/web-platform-tests/interop/issues/319 first, then investigate whether a wpt.fyi query can identify PRECONDITION_FAILED, harness errors, and other test problems. Done means there is a defined way to find these tests and a process for periodically reviewing them.
