Re-run tests from custom strategy about neotest HOT 4 CLOSED

Hmm right now the strategies are very unaware of most of neotest, they just run commands and provide raw output. Having them be responsible for starting off tests etc would be drastic change of responsibility which I don't think would make sense.

It seems more like the better integration point for you would be a custom consumer. Your consumer could have the same interface as the run consumer but then also contain the logic required for rerunning tests. We could expose how the run consumer parses the args to avoid duplication.

My gut reaction was that it doesn't make much sense for overseer to be a consumer, but after thinking about it more I think it could work if I kept it as the strategy, but also made a consumer like the run consumer. I'll play with this idea a bit and see if I can get it doing what I want. Thanks for the suggestion!

Got it working! I had to do a little gross monkey patching of neotest.run to make sure it gets used when you run tests from the summary, but that's the only bit I'm unhappy about.

The main thing I'm excited about with this integration is that overseer tasks make it super easy to rerun tests on save. Also since it has a UI for listing/controlling running tasks, it provides a solution for #66.

Thanks for your help!
