Andreas Ahlenstorf d1b69632aa fix: prevent jobs with unknown needs from running (#12046)
If Forgejo encounters an Actions workflow with unknown jobs in a needs definition, Forgejo will ignore those and run the job anyway. That is bad. For example, releases could be published without any testing because the name of the testing job was misspelt.

Workflow that demonstrates the problem:

```yaml
on:
  push:
  workflow_dispatch:
jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: debian
    steps:
      - run: |
          echo "OK"
  test:
    runs-on: debian
    needs: [does-not-exist]
    steps:
      - run: |
          echo "OK"
```

Now, before a workflow is run, Forgejo will check whether all jobs referenced in `needs` exist. If any of them does not, it raises a pre-execution error which fails the workflow immediately. It also displays an appropriate error to the user, for example:

```
Workflow was not executed due to an error that blocked the execution attempt.
Job with ID test references unknown jobs in `needs`: does-not-exist.
```

Futhermore, workflows with pre-execution errors can no longer be rerun, which was previously possible.

## Checklist

The [contributor guide](https://forgejo.org/docs/next/contributor/) contains information that will be helpful to first time contributors. All work and communication must conform to Forgejo's [AI Agreement](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/governance/src/branch/main/AIAgreement.md). There also are a few [conditions for merging Pull Requests in Forgejo repositories](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/governance/src/branch/main/PullRequestsAgreement.md). You are also welcome to join the [Forgejo development chatroom](https://matrix.to/#/#forgejo-development:matrix.org).

### Tests for Go changes

(can be removed for JavaScript changes)

- I added test coverage for Go changes...
  - [x] in their respective `*_test.go` for unit tests.
  - [ ] in the `tests/integration` directory if it involves interactions with a live Forgejo server.
- I ran...
  - [x] `make pr-go` before pushing

### Tests for JavaScript changes

(can be removed for Go changes)

- I added test coverage for JavaScript changes...
  - [ ] in `web_src/js/*.test.js` if it can be unit tested.
  - [ ] in `tests/e2e/*.test.e2e.js` if it requires interactions with a live Forgejo server (see also the [developer guide for JavaScript testing](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/src/branch/forgejo/tests/e2e/README.md#end-to-end-tests)).

### Documentation

- [ ] I created a pull request [to the documentation](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/docs) to explain to Forgejo users how to use this change.
- [ ] I did not document these changes and I do not expect someone else to do it.

### Release notes

- [x] This change will be noticed by a Forgejo user or admin (feature, bug fix, performance, etc.). I suggest to include a release note for this change.
- [ ] This change is not visible to a Forgejo user or admin (refactor, dependency upgrade, etc.). I think there is no need to add a release note for this change.

*The decision if the pull request will be shown in the release notes is up to the mergers / release team.*

The content of the `release-notes/<pull request number>.md` file will serve as the basis for the release notes. If the file does not exist, the title of the pull request will be used instead.
