Comment (by azaozz):

 Looking at this again, thinking it will need to be more "integrated" with
 Site Health somehow.  See #45933 and #44458.

 Basically timeouts and out-of-memory errors while uploading an image are
 an exception from the general "fatal error" handling. In addition the AJAX
 responses are... "hacky" (they don't use wp_send_json_success|error) but
 the response is expected to be json for the Media Modal.

 Also thinking it won't be enough to just show the cause for the fatal
 error. It should include "next step" or "try this now" part too (see
 changes to the default HTTP 500 error messages while uploading in #47872).
