Expectations
What are we expecting to happen?
We are expecting pipelines not to stuck in "created" or "running" state anymore.
What might happen if this goes wrong?
Some jobs can be skipped although they should run.
What can we monitor to detect problems with this?
This is a behavioral change, so we cannot monitor via Sentry/Logs/Data...
However, since this change affects the play
of jobs, we should not see an increase of 500 response in Projects::JobsController#play
