This introduces a linter to PRs to help with code reviews and code hygiene. I've also gone ahead and fixed (or ignored) the existing lints.
I've only setup the default linters right now. There are many more options that are documented at https://golangci-lint.run/.
The GitHub Action should add appropriate annotations to the lint job for the PR. Contributors can also lint locally using `make lint`.
#1179 was not working particularly for scale down of static (and perhaps long-running ephemeral) runners, which resulted in some runner pods are terminated before the requested unregistration processes complete, that triggered some in-progress workflow jobs to hang forever. This fixes an edge-case that resulted in a decreased desired replicas to trigger the failure, so that every runner is unregistered then terminated, as originally designed.
It turned out that #1179 broke static runners in a way it is no longer able to scale up at all when the desired replicas is updated.
This fixes that by correcting a certain short-circuit that is intended only for ephemeral runners to not mistakenly triggered for static runners.
I found that #1179 was unable to finish rollout of an RunnerDeployment update(like runner env update). It was able to create a new RunnerReplicaSet with the desired spec, but unable to tear down the older ones. This fixes that.
While testing #1179, I discovered that ARC sometimes stop resyncing RunnerReplicaSet when the desired replicas is greater than the actual number of runner pods.
This seems to happen when ARC missed receiving a workflow_job completion event but it has no way to decide if it is either (1) something went wrong on ARC or (2) a loadbalancer in the middle or GitHub or anything not ARC went wrong. It needs a standard to decide it, or if it's not impossible, how to deal with it.
In this change, I added a hard-coded 10 minutes timeout(can be made customizable later) to prevent runner pod recreation.
Now, a RunnerReplicaSet/RunnerSet to restart runner pod recreation 10 minutes after the last scale-up. If the workflow completion event arrived after the timeout, it will decrease the desired replicas number that results in the removal of a runner pod. The removed runner pod might be deleted without ever being used, but I think that's better than leaving the desired replicas and the actual number of replicas diverged forever.
