Link jobs by their name rather than ID in the UI

🧩 Problem

Jobs are currently linked in some places in GitLab UI by their ID which doesn't help users differentiate between the jobs, it's not human readable.

Further details

I think this is only machine readable in a way. I don't see (the ID) adding value to my experience here. This could be like my job name.

Proposal

Use jobs names as the primary job identifier in the UI and provide the job ID as a secondary identifier.
