Add parent/child pipeline limitations (2nd attempt)

Fabio Pitino requested to merge add-parent-child-pipeline-limitations into master

Changes from this MR were originally merged in !21817 (merged) but needed to be reverted due a bug in code dependency introduced in !20930 (merged).

Given that the bug has been fixed, I'm resubmitting the same MR (to be merged once the bugfix MR !22663 (merged) is merged)

This MR diff is the same as the !21817 (merged) which had already been merged.

What does this MR do?

Related issue: #16094 (closed)

With the introduction of parent/child pipelines we need to add some limitations to prevent abuses:

  1. A child pipeline cannot create further child pipelines
  2. When defining a child pipeline trigger:include cannot contain more than 3 entries

What are parent/child pipelines? A pipeline (parent) can create a downstream pipeline (child) within the same project in order to breakdown a pipeline into composable primitives.

Does this MR meet the acceptance criteria?
