improving the title of each test as seen by the person running them

[jpiesing]

This may be too much of a divergence from the W3C WPT test runner & feel free to close it if that's the case but ...

We might consider improving the title of each test as seen by the person running them - for example adding an extra "column" to the CSV file that generates the tests from the combinations of HTML+JS templates and media files.

I'm particularly thinking of tests like sequential track playback that are run with many, many different streams and where the stream identifiers are just the letter "t" and a number. The abillity to add a more human-readable name for those could be quite helpful.

@jpiesing this works the title are part of the tests and not the Test Runner. I will check this with Fritz on Monday and add more details.

What I meant was in the page where the test operator configures which tests are to be run. So this list;
