Description
- [ ] This issue is blocking
- [ ] This issue is causing unreasonable pain
Given a .yml like this:
```yml
stages:
- stage: build
jobs:
- template: /eng/common/templates/jobs/jobs.yml
parameters:
jobs:
- job: Build_Linux
timeoutInMinutes: 120
disableComponentGovernance: true # <--- this causes an error
steps:
....
```
results in an Azure Pipelines error:
```
/eng/common/templates/jobs/jobs.yml (Line: 45, Col: 3): 'disableComponentGovernance' is already defined
```
If I read it correctly this happens because this code passes along parameters from jobs.yml into the job.yml so we end up with one `disableComponentGovernance` from jobs.yml and one from the `job`: https://github.com/dotnet/arcade/blob/3cbeb243091dab28adfdcd09fc43b77112cfbe72/eng/common/templates/jobs/jobs.yml#L44-L51
The same happens with the other parameters that are forwarded, like `continueOnError` etc.
