actually a resource group is allocated only per stage https://docs.gitlab.com/ce/ci/yaml/#resource_group

this leads to simultan usage of the group from different pipelines and stuck pipelines if there are multiple stages using this resource_group.

example: Pipeline: stage1 & stage2 uses resource_group: test

0. stage1 started in a pipeline (named stage1 at pipeline 1: stage1@1)
1. a second pipeline is started
2. stage1@2 is blocked due to blocked resource_group ✅
3. stage1@1 succeeds
4. stage1@2 starts and stage2@1 is blocked 💊

expected:

0. stage1@2 and stage2@2 are blocked unless stage1@1 and stage1@1 are finished
