Show build details when selecting "Plug into this computer" as install method
Describe the problem you have/What new integration you would like When selecting OTA or local download as installation method, the build and upload logs is shown nicely. However if local serial is selected, it will only show "Preparing Installation" and a spinner without any more details.
Please describe your use case for this integration and alternatives you've tried: I hope it could display detailed logs in the same style as OTA. Currently I can press F12 to open the devtools and it does log things to the console, but just display on the page would be more convenient.
Additional context Instead of this:
I'd prefer this:
+1 for this. I always select Download first, then dismiss the dialogue when it asks for download format. Then, I click Install again and select Plug into this computer again... And if the download fails, I check with esptool.py from command line to see the issue...

You can press F12 to open the browser development console to see the verbose log also for downloading. However I think it would be nice to also be able to view the detailed download log in the page. For now all we get is a spinner and a status label for both compiling and downloading.
