Cause: with the RunOnceDuration admission plugin disabled in 4.x, there is no longer automatic applying of activeDeadlineSeconds to build pods Consequence: Incorrect behavior with quotas can occur, namely quota shouldn't be required as build pods have the RestartPolicy to Never and that makes them fall outside the NotTerminating scope. Fix: the build controller is updated to provide an acceptable default for activeDeadlineSeconds given its design of being a run once pod that always terminates. Result: NotTerminating scope with quotas are handled properly for builds, namely the quota shouldn't be required as build pods have the RestartPolicy to Never and that makes them fall outside the NotTerminating scope.
