1404010 - Extend the worker to have the runId of its most recentTask

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Taskcluster :: Services, enhancement)

Description

[Hassan Ali (:hassan)]

Presently, when a user is on the workers page, clicking on the most recent task id will take you to the latest run of that task. What we want is to link the user to the actual runId of that task. To implement that, we need to:

- Extend the queue API to return the runId of the most recent task
- Add logic in the tools website to link the user to that /groups/${taskGroupId}/tasks/${taskId}/runs/${runId}

On azure, we're storing the the list of most recent task ids in `recentTasks`. The problem with this is that it's currently stored as a SlugIdArray. This is a problem because we can't include the runId to it. To that end, I will need to switch the data type of the `recentTasks` azure property to a JSON blob to be a list of the most recent (taskId, runId).

Good point let's make it:

  recentTasks: [{taskId: '...', runId: ...}, ...]
