Maybe considerInvalidRequestUserError makes more sense to me, though it's not more concise 😆

Found this while I was looking at CodeQL Action telemetry as I rolled out some other changes.
Categorizing user errors correctly in telemetry helps us detect and respond to incidents faster. This PR starts marking invalid SARIF upload requests as
UserErrorwhen users use theupload-sarifAction, as here the SARIF is not under our control, and things like invalid paths or invalid SARIF are not problems with our service.

invalidRequestIsUserErrorwelcome — this felt a little awkward.Merge / deployment checklist
