Problem to solve

When we deliver #15536 (closed), there is a situation where a resource may be locked forever (or until the timeout #118434), we need to provide a way for the user to unlock the resource.

Intended users

Further details

We will provide two methods to achieve unlocking of a resource.

  1. API (this issue)
  2. UI

Proposal

Add an API that unlocks the resource

This should terminate the job that is locking the resource.

Similar to canceling a job POST /projects/:id/jobs/:job_id/cancel
