Description
Found a fun UI bug today: my system job had allocations fail, and then I worked on something else for several hours, and the garbage collector subsequently removed my terminal allocs.
When viewing the job in the UI, the job showed up as "Scaled Down". This is a new status we added this summer to help show when an operator manually set a job's group counts to 0 to let it sit dormant.
While there are problems with showing an alloc-less system job as "Failed" (it may in fact have been deliberately "scaled down" by virtue of taking all eligible nodes offline, for example), this seems like it's by far the most common reason you'd have an un-GC'd system job with no allocs, and so "Scaled Down" shouldn't be the default label for it. This PR makes it so system/sysbatch jobs cannot be labelled "Scaled Down" as such.
