Pull Request Overview
This PR updates the dependencies field in the maestro_step_instance table from JSON to JSONB to enable support for PostgreSQL's first_value() function.
- Changes the
dependenciescolumn data type from JSON to JSONB in the database migration - Removes the comment about preserving map order since JSONB doesn't guarantee order preservation
- Enables advanced PostgreSQL JSON functions that require JSONB data type

The comment should clarify that JSONB was chosen to enable PostgreSQL functions like first_value(), as this provides important context for the data type decision.

* add a SEL function to check if a param exists and improve the SEL doc (Netflix#118) * fix some warnings from the build (Netflix#120) * add get workflow instances batch endpoint (Netflix#121) * Add a SEL function to get the value of error retries. Also add one example of k8s step to set env. (Netflix#123) * Add a Redis-based InstanceStepConcurrencyHandler implementation.

(Netflix#119) * Add postgres based Maestro persistence layer to support postgressql db. * Update indexed columns to use the COLLATE "C". * Make this minor update to use JSON instead JSONB to address some tricky cases. Note that Postgres JSONB will not preserve the original order of map field. It might cause troubles in certain cases, e.g. param map order. * update the dependency lock * address the comments * Improve Maestro to retry certain db errors, e.g. connection is closed.

(Netflix#130) * Update delete queue config to match the deletion processor timeout. * address the comment * Explicitly clear the pending action after passing it to the step runtime. (Netflix#131) * Explicitly clear the pending action after passing it to the step runtime. * Add tests to verify that the pending action is reset. * Add comments for the config. * Improve the test a bit. * Fix edge case where unblocking workflow doesn't enqueue job event (Netflix#132) * Fix edge case where unblocking workflow doesn't enqueue job event There is an edge case when we unblock all failed instances in batches and default batch size = 100, the only failed instance was unblocked in first while loop but didn't enqueue a job event because the condition requires unblocked count > 0 (in 1st loop this value is not updated and is still 0). This PR updated the if condition to account for this case. * improve comment * Check if string map param is literal before returning the value.

The worker should not retry in this case. * address the comment * fix a corner case during launching a subworkflow if the subworkflow instance already exists (Netflix#142) * getAction logic should not pick up the upstream actions in async execution mode (Netflix#143) * Subworkflow should wake up its child workflow than itself.
