Description of the need
In some cases, there will be errors or warnings on the status report that administrators will choose to accept, and ignore. It would be nice to be able to mark these messages as dismissed, so that they do not 1) trigger the red-dot if they are errors, or 2) clutter the status report.
Proposed solution
I would like every error or warning on the status report to provide an X that administrators could use to dismiss the message.
When dismissed, the message would be moved to one of the following places (discuss!) * a collapsed fieldset at the bottom of the status report * it's usual position in the list of status report messages - but grayed out as though disabled
When dismissed, the X on that message would be replaced with another tool that would provide the ability to re-enable the message. (suggestions?)
Additional information
This feature was recommended by @quicksetch in #3824 and would also help progress other issues, like #3490 and #5106.
Other things we discussed being dismissible:
* dismissible backdrop_set_message()s
* dismissible dashboard blocks,

Hi Francis. Yes, what config do you have in staging for it? You might have configs like: field.field.field_video_embed field.instance.node.page....
