Cancel redundant pipelines in merge train when reconstruction happens

Sean Carroll requested to merge 12996-cancel-redundant-pipelines into master

What does this MR do?

Extends the Merge Train pipeline to detect and cancel pipelines when a new merge request has rendered them redundant. The pipeline running against the old expected post-merge commit has been invalidated, so is discarded.

Test coverage has been enhanced to cover this scenario.

Does this MR meet the acceptance criteria?

Conformity

Performance and Testing

Security

  • Security reports checked/validated by a reviewer from the AppSec team

Closes #12996 (closed)
