Develop a status ruleset for an independent stage

[ecrupper]

Description

Example pipeline:

version: "1"

stages:
  failing:
    steps:
      - name: fail
        image: alpine:latest
        commands:
          - exit 1

  indy:
    independent: true
    steps:
      - name: wait
        image: alpine:latest
        commands:
          - sleep 5

      - name: should not run
        image: alpine:latest
        ruleset:
          status: failure
        commands:
          - echo "why am I running"

The above will execute the should not run step because the overall build's status is a failure. This issue suggests we should either change the logic for the status ruleset for independent stages OR create a new status like stage-failure or something along those lines.

Value

It more accurately aligns with the "spirit" of independent stages.

Definition of Done

There is a way where the example pipeline above does not execute that should not run step.

Effort (Optional)

1-2 weeks maybe
