Resolve "Using the Web IDE Web Terminal leads to error 500 when accessing the dashboard/projects list"

What does this MR do?

Adds a check around pipeline status caching so that only the CI pipeline statuses are cached. This means the WebIDE Terminal pipeline status will no longer be cached unnecessarily.

This is being done because caching of the terminal pipeline status causes a 500 error when trying to view the projects dashboard after starting a terminal pipeline (see #197130 (closed)).

The dashboard uses project.pipeline_status to determine if it should show a pipeline status icon. This method was returning a cached terminal pipeline status, which then caused the detailed_status error described in the related issue.

Does this MR meet the acceptance criteria?
