Description

I thought we were going to be adding that text to the SUI at some point, but clearly we forgot to do that.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Find the Settings UI page for profile properties in the Terminal codebase. Locate where profile display name and dynamic status are handled. Add a text indicator, e.g., 'Dynamic' or an icon, next to the profile name or in the settings page. Ensure the indicator is properly localized and styled.
