Settings decoration: Modified in Folder

[chrmarti]

Issue Type: Feature Request

Testing #57304

There already is a 'Modified in Workspace" decoration, it would be great if that would also list any folders in which that setting is modified (and also show these in the workspace settings).

@sandy081 is there an easy way to find out whether a setting is modified in some folder, or do I need to call inspect for every workspace folder to check? All workspace folders multiplied by all settings could be large, which is why I left this out...

There is no such API but at the end I might also do internally. So, I see it as util method. I do not see how can we make it efficient other than checking a setting is modified for each folder or not. But internally everything comes from cache so getting a setting per resource is not costly.

Ok, I can do it from the frontend and measure whether it affects perf. I can also do it lazily when the row is rendered.
