1. Implement Skipping …

   When  `WhenExpressions` evaluate to `False`, the `Task` and its branch
   (of dependent `Tasks`) will be skipped by default while the rest of the
   `Pipeline` will execute.
   
   A `Task` branch is made up of dependent `Tasks`, where there are two
   types of dependencies:
   - _Resource dependency_: based on resources needed from parent `Task`,
   which includes [`Results`](#using-results) and [`Resources`](#specifying-resources).
   - _Ordering dependency_: based on [`runAfter`](#using-the-runafter-parameter)
   which provides sequencing of `Tasks` when there may not be resource
   dependencies.
   
   In some use cases, when `WhenExpressions` evaluate to `False`,
   users need to skip the guarded `Task` only and allow ordering-dependent
   `Tasks` to execute.
   
   In `Tasks` guarded using `WhenExpressions` and that have ordering
   dependencies only, use `whenSkipped` to specify what happens when the
   guarded `Task` is skipped.
   
   The `whenSkipped` takes either `SkipBranch` or `RunBranch` policies.
   To allow execution of ordering-dependent `Tasks`, set `whenSkipped` to
   `RunBranch` in the guarded parent task.
   
   If neither `SkipBranch` nor `RunBranch` is specified, the default one
   is `SkipBranch`.
   
   However, setting `whenSkipped` in `Tasks` without `WhenExpressions` or
   `Tasks` with resource dependencies is invalid and will cause `Pipeline`
   validation errors.
