vela-downstream invoke most recent commit of a branch

[msanssouci]

Description

Currently the go-vela/vela-downstream plugin is implemented such that it finds the last the successful build on a branch and restarts it. My use case is I want to build the most recent commit of a branch regardless of previous build statuses. When I tried using the current implementation configuring my functional test repo and branch main, the plugin attempted to restart a pull_request build because it was the last successful build.

Value

My team would like to use go-vela/vela-downstream plugin to trigger builds of our functional tests by triggering a build of the most recent commit on the main branch of our functional test repo.

Definition of Done

I can use the go-vela/vela-downstream to trigger the most recent commit of a branch.

Thanks, this is in our backlog and we are assessing its priority.

Note: this is doable by enumerating all statuses in the status parameter for this plugin, but that isn't exactly ideal. It would be better if there was an all option or something as well. Keeping this issue open for that
