Try to optimize test ordering when run-tests.sh is used with a mixture of test types

This will have no effect on core test runs, so ideally we'd see how much difference it makes with a contrib module that has a decent test suite like paragraphs.

So seems like one of those features that may have to be merged first to truly measure impact right?

I think it would be possible to create a merge request in a module like webform or paragraphs and apply the core patch and verify the output/execution time before/after. But we can also do that after this was merged.

Committed to 11.x and backported to 11.0.x, 10.4.x and 10.3.x

Also backported to 10.2.x even though technically this is a task because for contrib modules testing this, they will still be using the 10.2.x checkout for some time. If folks disagree with that, happy to wind that back.
