      Update 2023-10-27 for LTS v2.414.3

      with Jenkins v2.414.3 this bug is now so massive:

      after each restart service goes into this corrupt state just in a few seconds
      -> Jenkins no longer usable for us
      => after downgrade back to 2.414.2 it is usable again
      => but still worse

      hint: we use extensively the Jenkins API to update labels and config of nodes (>150 nodes in parallel) to balance jobs, I think we found here a race condition

      some minutes after restart Jenkins Server service some pipeline job stuck in state "Still waiting to schedule task" and whole queue deadlock forever

      pipeline example:

      pipeline {
    agent { node { label params.nodename } }
    options { buildDiscarder(logRotator(numToKeepStr: '5000', artifactNumToKeepStr: '5000')) }
    parameters
    {
        string (name: 'nodename', defaultValue: '')
        string (name: 'commandLine', defaultValue: '')
        string (name: 'sourceBranch', defaultValue: 'master', description: '')
    }
    stages {
        stage('Execute') {
            when {
                beforeAgent true
                expression { params.nodename != '' }
            }
            steps {
                bat 'echo hello'
            }
        }
    }
}

      parameter example:
      nodename: VM-514A56DC0979

      node is connected and idling

      finally the whole jenkins queue deadlocks
      no progress until I restart the Jenkins Server service
      but after service restart and some minutes it stuck again in that state

      have also an observation what can be related to this:
      if I want to change configuration of that node it lead to an serious error in Jenkins
