Implement redis cache of failed builds executed on instance runners

Pedro Pombeiro (OOO from July 16th till Aug 7th) requested to merge pedropombeiro/421889/1-store-runner-failed-builds-in-redis into master

What does this MR do and why?

MR Description
!130560 (merged) ◀ you are here Implement redis cache of failed builds executed on instance runners
!130579 (merged) GraphQL: Implement failure_reason in AllJobsResolver

This MR implement a list on the redis cache that will be used in a follow-up MR to keep builds that:

  • executed on instance runners
  • failed with failure_reason: :runner_system_failure

These builds represent a small fraction of existing builds in prod (1 in 500).

This will be needed to build a dashboard to list out the latest instance-wide runner system failures without overloading the database with queries to ci_builds. The actual feature will be built progressively under a feature flag in follow-up MRs.

EE: true
