[Feature]: report beginning of every test or it via reporter API #13112
Description
🚀 Feature Proposal
Now Reporter API reports the result of every test or it, but there are no events for beginning of each test or it.
Related discussion in #6616
Motivation
Reporting the beginning of each test/it would allow external tools (like IDEs) to provide more fine-grained support for test trees. For example, it would allow to attach test output (e.g. produced by console.log) properly to test nodes. Right now all the output wrongly goes to an ancestor node corresponing to the test file containing test/it.
In particular, it would allow to fix https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-53839.
For example, here is how it looks when running with jest@28 the following test file
it('foo', function () {
console.log('foo');
});
it('bar', function () {
console.log('bar');
});
when foo or bar test nodes are selected, no output is shown:
Here is how it's expected to work (captured with jest@27 and "testRunner": "jasmine2"):

Pitch
Looks like some changes in jest-circus and jest-reporter are needed.
