Add a way to distinguish whether the user explicitly ran `forge build` or it is part of a process like `forge test` #9340

Component

Forge

Describe the feature you would like

Referring to https://github.com/foundry-rs/foundry/pull/9325#issuecomment-2482602927

Sometimes, it's useful to be able to act based on whether the subcommand was explicitly called, or it triggered as part of another process.

For instance, when running forge test, this triggers forge build but the user didn't explicitly run it.

In the case above, this would be useful to adjust the output of the command, since a low verbosity like -v might be ok if forge build was explicitly called, but a higher level like -vvvvv would be more suitable for when the output is triggered by forge test.

I think we already have this https://github.com/foundry-rs/foundry/blob/44c86e76d5e37505cd7349a867e64a845b5b9b2d/crates/forge/bin/main.rs#L137-L153
