Description

With the new pipeline deployment, the queuing doesn't check to see if a request for the same PR is already in the queue. This allows for a single PR to have two runs going concurrently.

I'd expect that if a run is already queued or running, the older request would be removed from the queue and/or the current run would be cancelled.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the new pipeline deployment and the linked pull request #242242, then trace how queued requests for pull requests are represented and processed. Done means a newer request for the same PR does not produce concurrent runs: the older queued request is removed or the current run is cancelled.
