Description

Pipeline parameters can be used to tweak pipeline behavior, and currently the names are all auto-generated and thus not stable. We should add support to provide names for the pipeline parameters.

We will need to make sure provided parameters follow the naming rules for GitHub / ADO and also add a check to ensure they are unique.

Research direction

Start at flowey's pipeline parameter definition and the logic that currently auto-generates parameter names. Check the naming rules for GitHub and ADO, then trace existing validation or tests. Done means callers can provide stable names and invalid or duplicate names are rejected.
