When an Actions job is blocked or waiting, the job view only shows the
generic **Blocked** / **Waiting** label. Users have no way to tell *why*
a job is stuck — whether it's waiting on dependencies, waiting for a
runner that doesn't exist, waiting for a runner whose labels don't
match, or simply queued behind busy runners.
## Change
The current-job detail line now surfaces the actual cause:
- **Blocked** → lists the dependency jobs (`needs`) that haven't
finished yet, e.g. *"Waiting for the following jobs to complete:
build."*
- **Waiting**, no online runner → *"No runner is online to pick up this
job."*
- **Waiting**, online runners but none match `runs-on` → *"No matching
online runner with label: X"* (reuses the existing string)
- **Waiting**, a matching runner exists but hasn't claimed the job →
*"Waiting for a matching runner to become available."*
The runner lookup reuses the same available-online-runner query the run
list already performs, and only runs while a selected job is actually
pending. Dependency resolution is scoped to the same parent job and
treats matrix expansions of a `need` as pending until all of them
complete.
## Summary
- Redesign the Actions run summary header to follow GitHub Actions
layout: trigger info on the left, Status / Total duration / Artifacts
columns inline on the right
- Expose trigger user avatar, pull request link, and PR head branch info
from the run view API
- Update the workflow graph header to show the workflow filename (linked
to the run workflow file) and `on: <event>`, while keeping the
jobs/dependencies/success stats line
- Remove the redundant commit/workflow metadata row below the run title;
that information now lives in the summary bar

## Fixes#36983
## Summary
1. Add transitional `Cancelling` status (between `Running` and
`Cancelled`); cancel flow marks active tasks `Cancelling`, runner
finalizes to `Cancelled` on terminal result.
2. Taskless jobs cancel directly (no runner to finalize).
3. Runner-protocol responses map `Cancelling` → `RESULT_CANCELLED`.
4. Run/job aggregation treats `Cancelling` as active.
5. Status mapping/aggregation tests + en-US locale added.
**Problem**
When a workflow was cancelled from the UI, jobs were marked cancelled
immediately, which could skip post-run cleanup behavior.
## Solution
Use a transitional status path:
Running → Cancelling → Cancelled
This allows runner finalization and cleanup path execution before final
terminal state.
**Testing**
> 1. go test -tags "sqlite sqlite_unlock_notify" ./models/actions -run
"TestAggregateJobStatus|TestStatusAsResult|TestStatusFromResult"
> 2. go run
github.com/golangci/golangci-lint/v2/cmd/golangci-lint@v2.11.4 run
./models/actions/... ./routers/api/actions/runner/...

independent; this PR's capability gate keeps legacy runners on the
immediate-cancel path. The new flow activates only for runners that
advertise the `cancelling` capability.
