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 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:

variables:
  FF_TIMESTAMPS: true

Example log output with FF_TIMESTAMPS enabled:

Timestamps for each log line

...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)

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).
