CI/CD: Codeowner checks are slowing down the pipeline
Problem to solve
The pipeline run in https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/content-sites/handbook/-/jobs/5970843142 took 180 seconds just for hugo
to build the project.
The entire pipeline took 300+ seconds. This increases review and merge times.
Proposal
Research with these code owner lookups take so long, and add caching, or explore different sync options.
