Make cronjob runs more observable #2512

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

As a Thoth operator, I would like to have an overview of cronjob runs as there are a few cronjobs that should be monitored. To support this, we could have a dashboard that shows each cronjob and information when it was run. This way, the Thoth operator can be sure cronjobs work and users of Thoth get up to date recommendations.

Additional context

it might be a good idea to switch to CronWorkflows
- related https://github.com/thoth-station/thoth-application/issues/654

There were also issues with cronworkflows, so worth to check if we can run cronworkflows in deployments.

To support this, we could have a dashboard that shows each cronjob and information when it was run.

Would that be:

producing metrics to be consummed by a dashboard (Grafana ?)
producing the dashboard while using a dashboard engine like Grafana
implement the dashboard functionnality ourselves ?

-> Some of those items might already exists
