A forced sync is used up by a reconcile that fails before the apply

Behavior#

convoy records a force request as handled at each reconcile that sees it. This includes a reconcile that fails before the dry run or the apply, for example because the source fetch fails.

Effect#

A /sync?force=true can have no effect. The next reconcile runs the dry run again and keeps a Failed or RolledBack rollout.

Workaround#

Send the forced sync again after the transient error is gone.

Fix direction#

Record the force request as handled only after a reconcile that reached the apply.
