A simplified test case that reproduces the issue

rdar://124099629

In the inspector's Console tab, the Infos and Debugs message filter buttons show up when new non-default log channel messages are added to the Console. However, when the inspector is opened for the first time, if there are already non-default log channel messages left in the Console, the Infos and Debugs button do not show up.

To reproduce:
   1. Open Safari and go to stripe.com
   2. Open inspector's Console tab
   3. Observe that there are no "Infos" and "Debugs" message filter buttons
   4. Leave the Console tab open and reload the webpage
   5. Observe that the "Infos" and "Debug" buttons now show up

Here's a video demo: https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/assets/105809798/e9cbbecc-b2f2-45a1-8147-d4582e444e07

See attached for a simplified test case (test-case.html). You'll need to host the webpage (e.g. with `python3 -m http.server`) to see the effect.

NOTE: We are currently coming up with a plan to optimize the UI, particularly about the behavior of the Infos and Debugs buttons. See https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/pull/24565

https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/pull/24565 fixed this: the two buttons now have their visibility synched with whether there are info or debug messages respectively.
