 Build/Test Tools: Introduce local visual regression testing.

 Adds the ability to ''locally'' run visual regression testing for wp-admin
 pages via `npm run test:visual`. Snapshots are stored on contributors'
 local machines.

 Note:
 Wiring to the CI is not included. Why? The challenges for the CI are
 storage of the artifacts and unreliability of testing these across
 different environments.

 This commit is a first step towards visual regression testing. Running it
 locally provides a learning opportunity which could help to craft how to
 build it into the automated CI process.

 Props isabel_brison, andraganescu, azaozz, danfarrow, desrosj,
 hellofromTonya, justinahinon, netweb, talldanwp.
 Fixes #49606.
