Description

It looks like the 'Update wasm tests' workflow will keep opening identical PRs each week if the previous update was not merged. See #54735 #54609, and #54835 which all have the same contents.

Research direction

Start by inspecting the "Update wasm tests" workflow and compare the identical PRs referenced in #54735, #54609, and #54835. Trace how the workflow determines whether an earlier update is still pending; done means later weekly runs no longer open duplicate PRs while an existing update remains unmerged.
