Make `manual:e2e-test-pipeline-generate` always available

Lin Jen-Shin requested to merge manual-e2e-always-available into master

What does this MR do and why?

Make manual:e2e-test-pipeline-generate always available

The automated e2e:package-and-test-ee might only run in tier 3 pipelines, and in some cases we might want to run it earlier. While this can be done by using pipeline:run-all-e2e label, we'll need to trigger a new pipeline after the label has been applied.

Simply always having a way to manually trigger it is just simpler and easier.

Note that the manual actions are always allowed to fail though. Even if the manual follow-up:e2e:package-and-test-ee failed, it'll not be shown as an error in the pipeline, but a warning.

After the pipeline reached tier 3, we run the automated one, which is not allowed to fail, therefore blocking from merging if it's failing.
