Pull request overview
Adds logging to surface Altair chart rendering issues that were previously silently ignored when _repr_mimebundle_() fails (e.g., missing vl-convert-python or misconfiguration), improving debuggability in the output formatting pipeline.
Changes:
- Log a warning when
chart._repr_mimebundle_()raises an exception during Altair formatting.

📝 Summary
We swallowed errors when imports were not installed / configurations were incorrect when rendering altair charts. This can lead to user confusion because their settings were not being respected.
I noticed this when testing #9104 and did not have
vl-convert-pythoninstalled.I'm hoping this isn't too noisy, I've tried several altair notebooks.
