[tool] Provide better CI feedback for combo PRs (flutter#6865)

Currently if a PR follows the recommended combo PR process for a federated plugin, the main PR will have CI errors that say the PR isn't allowed to do what it is doing, which is confusing, especially to new contributors or reviewers.

This updates the tooling to detect the temporary overrides created by the tooling, and uses that to trigger a different error message that explains that the error is expected, and exists only to prevent accidental landing.

Fixes flutter/flutter#129303
