No stages/jobs found when configuring single jobs with default stages.

Summary

We have a number of CI templates where only the .pre stage is defined within a job block. In some cases we also have a single job in ci with stage: test. Since the latest release it seems that Gitlab now considers these jobs as non-existent.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create a test project with the following in .gitlab-ci.yml
test:
    stage: test
    script: echo

No CI will run and attempting to add a manual pipeline will fail with error "No stages/jobs for this pipeline."

  1. Explicitly add stages: to .gitlab-ci.yml
stages:
    - test

test:
    stage: test
    script: echo

CI will now run fine. Subsequently removing stages, will also fix it going forward.

What is the current bug behavior?

Default stages are ignored unless explicitly called out. If .pre is the only stage, even when explicitly called out in stages:, the error remains.

What is the expected correct behavior?

Default stages such as test, build, deploy, .pre and .post work even in CI config with only a single job.
