compiletest: warn/error on redundant check-fail directives #130742

Description

check-fail here is redundant

Originally posted by @compiler-errors in #130718 (comment)

Some test suites have a default test behavior, like //@ check-fail, in which case specifying that explicitly in the test is redundant and useless noise. When compiletest directive handling is worked, we should warn or error on redundant directives like these and also explain why it's redundant, e.g. "ui test mode is check-fail by default".

Remark: this check should not be added before reworking how compiletest directives are handled as it's not just one test suite or directive.
