Allow join to return success if only some of the source tasks are executed

Registered by Bob Haddleton

This blueprint adds the capability for a join to succeed if only some of the source tasks are executed successfully, as long as the remaining tasks cannot be reached.

The existing logic assumes that unreachable tasks imply failure, so if only some of the tasks that point to a join complete and others are not reachable, the workflow fails.

This proposal is to add a new join: value that will cause the engine to return success when some of the tasks before a join have completed successfully and the rest are not reachable.

It will NOT change the behavior of failures in any tasks to trigger a failure in the join task.
