Fix sticking of Runner a new job is scheduled
What does this MR do?
Fixes Runner stickiness when a new job is scheduled and we have significant replication lag.
Instead of saying to runner: "Hi, nothing for you, go away" we say "Hi, something is wrong, try again later".
This will make jobs/request
to continue using replicas, always, but gracefully react for replication lag,
and retry.
