Link pipeline by their name/commit name rather than ID in the UI

Update: This change was rolled back. See #337496 (comment 852094210)

🧩 Problem

Pipelines 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.

Proposal

Use pipeline commit message or names (once implemented) as the primary pipeline identifier in the UI and provide the pipeline ID as a secondary identifier.
