## Summary
Fixes two related bugs that cause jobs in large workflows (50+ parallel
jobs) to never get a runner assigned even though runners are free.
### Bug 1 — Concurrent runner race
When N runners all poll `FetchTask` with a stale `tasksVersion`
simultaneously, they all query the same waiting job list sorted by
`(updated, id)` and all pick **job #1**. Only one wins the `UPDATE WHERE
task_id=0` optimistic lock; the rest return empty-handed but still
receive `latestVersion` in the response. They then consider themselves
"up to date" and skip `PickTask` on every subsequent poll, leaving jobs
#2–50 permanently unassigned.
**Fix:** `CreateTaskForRunner` now iterates through all matching waiting
jobs. When the optimistic lock fails on job #1, it immediately tries job
#2, then #3, etc., each in its own independent transaction so a failed
attempt rolls back cleanly before the next candidate is tried.
`PickTask` no longer wraps this call in an outer `db.WithTx` (which
caused `halfCommitter` entanglement that prevented per-attempt
rollbacks).
### Bug 2 — Idle runner doesn't re-check after finishing a task
`tasks_version` only bumps when a job transitions **to** waiting (new
workflow triggered, blocked→unblocked). After a runner finishes its
current task it polls `FetchTask` with `tasksVersion == latestVersion`,
so the server skips `PickTask` entirely — the remaining 45 waiting jobs
are invisible to the now-idle runner.
**Fix:** Also call `IncreaseTaskVersion` in `UpdateRunJob` when a
(non-reusable-caller) job transitions to a **done** state. Idle runners
then see a version mismatch on their next poll and attempt `PickTask`,
picking up the remaining jobs.
## Fixes#36983
## Summary
1. Add transitional `Cancelling` status (between `Running` and
`Cancelled`); cancel flow marks active tasks `Cancelling`, runner
finalizes to `Cancelled` on terminal result.
2. Taskless jobs cancel directly (no runner to finalize).
3. Runner-protocol responses map `Cancelling` → `RESULT_CANCELLED`.
4. Run/job aggregation treats `Cancelling` as active.
5. Status mapping/aggregation tests + en-US locale added.
**Problem**
When a workflow was cancelled from the UI, jobs were marked cancelled
immediately, which could skip post-run cleanup behavior.
## Solution
Use a transitional status path:
Running → Cancelling → Cancelled
This allows runner finalization and cleanup path execution before final
terminal state.
**Testing**
> 1. go test -tags "sqlite sqlite_unlock_notify" ./models/actions -run
"TestAggregateJobStatus|TestStatusAsResult|TestStatusFromResult"
> 2. go run
github.com/golangci/golangci-lint/v2/cmd/golangci-lint@v2.11.4 run
./models/actions/... ./routers/api/actions/runner/...

independent; this PR's capability gate keeps legacy runners on the
immediate-cancel path. The new flow activates only for runners that
advertise the `cancelling` capability.
