Automatically Load-balance tests

Description

Optimizing CI/CD pipelines to take the minimum amount of time can be tough. We should help developers by automatically load-balancing tests so that each job will take roughly equal time, resulting in shortest wall-clock time.

Proposal

  • Likely depends on gitlab-ce#21480 (closed)
  • Prior art: knapsack

Documentation blurb

(Write the start of the documentation of this feature here, include:

  1. Why should someone use it; what's the underlying problem.
  2. What is the solution.
  3. How does someone use this

During implementation, this can then be copied and used as a starter for the documentation.)
