Update status icons for project runners

Release notes

Project runners use inconsistent icons to represent status. They should be updated to reflect up-to-date statuses, and become more consistent with runners in the admin view and group.

Problem to solve

Project runners use icons to indicate status rather than badges, as group and instance runners use instead. The icons are inconsistent with the statuses they are reflecting, especially considering we have new statuses that need to be reflected.

Intended users

Metrics

User experience goal

Improve the consistency of runner statuses across GitLab.

Proposal

Stale: time-out icon Stale will be used over never contacted, we can explain that the last contact was never in the tooltip

Offline: status-waiting icon Offline will transition to stale once not contacted for 3 months
