Update Pipeline Execution planning workflow
Why is this change being made?
After discussion in the grouppipeline execution team meeting and on Slack, it was decided to update the Pipeline Execution workflow with the following changes:
- The workflowplanning breakdown column on the PE workflow board, rather than a Needs Weight issue, will be the SSOT for issues needing refinement
- Issues for the next milestone that need refinement will be directly assigned to engineers by the EM
- If there are no remaining issues in workflowready for development, engineers may instead pick up an issue to refine from workflowplanning breakdown
