Step jobDsl can be used at most once in pipeline with DELETE

      The example for the jobDsl pipeline step shows usage that cannot actually be used:

      https://github.com/jenkinsci/job-dsl-plugin/wiki/User-Power-Moves#use-job-dsl-in-pipeline-scripts

      node {
    jobDsl scriptText: 'job("example-2")'

    jobDsl targets: ['jobs/projectA/*.groovy', 'jobs/common.groovy'].join('\n'),
           removedJobAction: 'DELETE',
           removedViewAction: 'DELETE',
           lookupStrategy: 'SEED_JOB',
           additionalClasspath: ['libA.jar', 'libB.jar'].join('\n')
}

      This will always delete the job "example-2" because the second step DELETEs all unfreferenced items, unless of course one of the scripts also happens to create a job named "example-2".

       

      From my brief look at the source, I don't think this would be easy to implement. However, it would still be incredibly useful to be able to call jobDsl multiple times with different arguments.
