Hot reload/restart events accumulate in IDE Notifications timeline, obscuring important alerts

[khusantoy]

Description

Every hot reload and hot restart triggers a "Reloading..." entry in the
IDE Notifications panel (bell icon). Over a typical development session,
these accumulate rapidly in the Timeline view, cluttering the panel and
burying genuinely important notifications (e.g., "Shortcuts conflicts").

Steps to Reproduce

1. Open any Flutter project in Android Studio
2. Run the app in debug mode
3. Make changes and trigger hot reload/restart multiple times (Cmd+S or toolbar)
4. Open the Notifications panel (bell icon, top-right)

Expected Behavior

Hot reload/restart events should either:

• Not appear in the Notifications timeline at all (they are transient
  progress events, not persistent alerts), OR
• Be grouped/collapsed into a single entry per session, OR
• Use a lower-priority notification level that doesn't persist in timeline

Actual Behavior

Each hot reload adds a separate "Reloading..." entry to the Notifications
timeline. In a single session, 4–10+ entries accumulate, pushing critical
notifications (like shortcut conflicts or build errors) out of view.

Impact

Important notifications (e.g., "Shortcuts conflicts — Tilt and 16 more
shortcut conflict with macOS shortcuts") are buried below repeated
"Reloading..." entries, making them easy to miss.

Great observations. That pileup of notifications doesn't seem to be adding a lot of value.
