Finite pipelines which have already stopped throws error when deleted

Original comment by @suyograo:

To reproduce

logstash.yml

xpack.management.enabled: true
xpack.management.elasticsearch.url: "http://localhost:9200"
xpack.management.elasticsearch.username: elastic
xpack.management.elasticsearch.password: changeme
xpack.management.pipeline.id: ["generator", "apache"]

Generator config in UI:

input {
  generator { count => 1 }
}
output {
  file { path => '/tmp/foo" }
}

This pipeline generates one event and shuts down. When you now delete this pipeline from the UI, you get these errors:
