Description of the new feature/enhancement

I want time stamps in the terminal for every command (although some would prefer for every line number, potentially).

I envision it like https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/72e14aa6bb97c6e10870812ac9b521d41b8f890b/doc/ci/yaml/ci_job_log_timestamps.md#example-configuration-and-output depicts:

## Example configuration and output **Example pipeline configuration with `FF_TIMESTAMPS` enabled:** ```yaml variables: FF_TIMESTAMPS: true ``` **Example log output with `FF_TIMESTAMPS` enabled:** ![Timestamps for each log line](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/raw/master/doc/ci/yaml/img/ci_log_timestamp.png)

...which happens to depict how this feature would work well with https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/17490#issue-2382168026.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/463391 contains most of the useful discussions regarding implementation.

This might be a duplicate of https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/9331#issue-819782127, in retrospect (although I think I've phrased it better if so).
