[LRUG] scrolling through long testing logs to find errors from CI on PRs

If your test suite outputs structured metadata, then CircleCI will pull
that and display it at the top of your failed build.

https://circleci.com/docs/2.0/collect-test-data/

That's still a complicated step or two away from feeding it back into the
GitHub PR, but I'm not convinced that's actually as useful as you think it
will be.
