Autopkgtest: Show force-badtest results more prominently

Add new state "IGNORE-FAIL" for regressions which have a 'force' or
'force-badtest' hint. In the HTML, show them as yellow "Ignored failure"
(without a retry link) instead of "Regression", and drop the separate
"Should wait for ..." reason, as that is hard to read for packages with a long
list of tests.

This also makes retry-autopkgtest-regressions more useful as this will now only
run the "real" regressions.
