jest: Regression: test.only does not group skipped tests anymore

🐛 Bug Report

According to #2593 a .only on a test should remove the other tests from the test output.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Choose a testcase
Annotate it with .only:

it.only("should print only one test", async () => {
await Promise.resolve(true)
}

Run jest

Expected behavior

Only the single test should be in the output.

Let’s reopen and discuss. I think changing the behavior for test.skip in #8038 was not necessary, also not requested in #7999. It was also an oversight from my side as a reviewer.

Still actual in 27.4.7

Also my use case: I have 120 tests and have .only on just one of them. When running jest with default settings (also when using --watchAll), all 119 skipped tests are printed, instead of just one that interests me.
