Generic Pipeline Message in the Merge Request

Release notes
GitLab makes it easy for you and your teams to collaborate while creating software. In doing so we make the Merge Request central to that collaboration by including built in CI/CD. You can see results from your CI/CD pipelines directly in your merge request for common tasks like Security Scanning, Code Quality and even Infrastructure as Code output. Starting this release you can now provide generic Merge Request feedback reports directly into the merge request to enable easier collaboration with your team.
Problem to solve
Options for displaying generic job output in text form is difficult and users often resort to API calls to post comments on the merge request instead of providing messages directly in the Merge Request.

Could use some adjusted form of expose_as
