Status check "COMPLETED" skipped if branch deleted in the meantime

We experience an issue with the status checks reporting:

### Steps to reproduce:

- create a remote branch of an existing commit (e.g. via GitHub UI). For example: branch `main` with commit sha `aaaaaa`, create new branch `test`, also pointing to `aaaaaa`
- Jenkins discovers new branch `test` via github-branch-source-plugin and triggers build automatically
- in the build log it says `[GitHub Checks] GitHub check (name: Jenkins, status: IN_PROGRESS) has been published.`. Accordingly, the build status in GitHub UI is reported correctly and can be viewed at branch `main` and `test` (because they're both pointing to commit `aaaaaa`)
- during the build run - as part of the pipeline - the remote branch `test` is deleted via GitHub API, e.g. `[Pipeline] sh curl -s -X DELETE -u x-access-token:**** -H Accept: application/vnd.github.v3+json https://github.example.com/api/v3/repos/example-owner/example-repository/git/refs/heads/test`
- the build finishes successfully

### Expected behaviour:

The status `COMPLETED` is reported to GitHub, e.g.:


### Actual behaviour:

The status `COMPLETED` is *not* reported to GitHub.


This is not bad for the remote branch `test` (because it was deleted anyhow), but the status check on the branch `main` spins endlessly:



Not sure if related: we're using two shared declarative pipelines for the build.
