Bug #21993

Workflow runner keeps running when its only subprocess is "on hold" (state=queued, priority=0)

Description
Steps to reproduce:
- Launch a workflow that starts with a single step (e.g.: revsort) and wait for the wf runner instance to start
- Wait for the subprocess appears as Queued
- Cancel the subprocess
The workflow runner instance will keep running indefinitely. Not sure if it's a-c-r's job to realize that it should cancel itself.

Yes, arvados-cwl-runner should notice that the priority went to 0 and do something about it.

- All agreed upon points are implemented / addressed.
- workflow steps cancelled before being run are now recognized and treated as failed steps
- Anything not implemented (discovered or discussed during work) has a follow-up story.
- n/a
- Code is tested and passing, both automated and manual, what manual testing was done is described
- manually tested by running a workflow, cancelling the step in workbench, and observing the workflow runner didn't terminate. Then implemented the fix, went through the same process, and the cancelled (state: Committed, priority: 0) workflow step is now recognized as a failed step.
- Documentation has been updated.
- n/a
- Behaves appropriately at the intended scale (describe intended scale).
- no changes to scale
- Considered backwards and forwards compatibility issues between client and server.
- no issues, it now requests the 'priority' field from the container request, but that field has been in the container API from the very beginning
- Follows our coding standards and GUI style guidelines.
- yes
This is a straightforward bugfix, the only unusual thing is that it took so long to notice that there was a problem.
Unit testing currently doesn't really cover the main loop of the workflow runner. Integration tests do execute the main loop but it is difficult to test exceptional cases.
