Testing side bar colors: better highlight the difference between past and recently run tests #205873

Description

The Testing side bar should show the recently run tests more prominently than today.

Currently the distinction between past run tests and recently run tests is veeeeery subtle. Barely noticible for my eyes:

Successful tests that have been run in the past are green. Tests from the last test run are a sliiiightly brighter green.

My hope was that those two colors are themable, but only the base color is, via testing.iconPassed:

export const testingColorIconPassed = registerColor('testing.iconPassed', {
dark: '#73c991',
light: '#73c991',
hcDark: '#73c991',
hcLight: '#007100'
}, localize('testing.iconPassed', "Color for the 'passed' icon in the test explorer."));

Not sure where the logic is hidden, but it should distinguish the two states better. Or expose it for configuration.
