Implement passing dotenv variables to bridge jobs
What does this MR do?
Related to #233289 (closed)
We introduced inheriting variables from dependent jobs via dotenv report in %13.0. However, we did not consider bridge jobs to inherit variables, because bridge jobs do not download artifacts from dependencies.
With this MR, bridge jobs started to inherit variables of dependent jobs.
It is behind a feature flag ci_bridge_dependency_variables
