Console logs from playwright don't format strings #9030
Description
Describe the bug
Format strings in console logs are not properly formatted.
From reproduction:
const barVar = 'World';
console.log('%s', barVar);
gives:
stdout | test/playwright/bar.test.ts > playwright test > behaves
%s World
A real-world example:
Cannot update a component (`%s`) while rendering a different component (`%s`). To locate the bad setState() call inside `%s`, follow the stack trace as described in https://react.dev/link/setstate-in-render MyParentComponent MyChildComponent MyChildComponent
