Description

This is not very browsable:

image

You can't tell, but these have different origin-job branches, and the failures are because go-images doesn't have a slot for those branches to fit in. All these jobs are working properly.

We can use ##vso[build.updatebuildnumber]build number to change the title that shows up on that list to clarify the origin branch, and be more careful about how go-infra's dockerupdatepr cmd handles specific error conditions to make this job list much better.

Research direction

Start with the Azure Pipelines build logging command linked in the issue and the go-infra dockerupdatepr command. Trace how origin-job branches and go-images slot failures are represented, then verify that build titles identify the origin branch and that failure reporting distinguishes unavailable slots from actual job failures.
