When the new pipeline graph view rolls out, show a banner to notify users and gather feedback on the feature

What this issue is all about

&4509 (closed) makes changes to the pipeline graph in the Pipeline page. Those who use :needs in their config will have an option to see the graph in Needs view.

We want to notify the users about the new useful feature + gather feedback to this feedback issue.

Proposal

Show a banner to existing CI/CD users notifying them about the changes we've made to the pipeline graph. Include a link to gather feedback in a feedback issue and links to Needs documentation.

View job dependencies in the pipeline graph!

You can now group jobs in the pipeline graph based on which jobs are configured to run first, if you use the needs: keyword to establish job dependencies in your CI/CD pipelines. Learn how to speed up your pipeline with needs:. You can also provide feedback for this new pipeline graph view.
