[JENKINS-72711] Build History page no longer uses animated icons for builds in progress (regression in 2.434)

[jenkins-infra-bot]

Since I upgraded to Jenins 2.445, ongoing builds show up as completed builds (no spinner around the [check mark] icon) in the Build History view (/view/all/builds) which causes confusion for users.

  Cannot reproduce on a clean install of 2.445, with or without Material Theme plugin. Please provide more information about your setup, e.g., last known good version of Jenkins. See our bug reporting guidelines at https://www.jenkins.io/participate/report-issue/

  @ danielbeck On a clean install of Jenkins 2.445 (with recommended plugins) I can still reproduce this issue.
  
  The first time a job is ran it does display the "The project has never been built." icon and when it terminates it displays "The last build was successful." However when I run the job again instead of displaying "The last build was successful. A new build is in progress." icon it displays "The last build was successful.".
  
   
  
  The behavior is not reproducible from the job's Build History side panel. It seems to be only reproducible in "Build History of Jenkins" view.

  Thanks for the clarification, I missed that distinction in the initial report.

  Manually bisected to 2.434, looking at the changes it's Use symbols for build status #8705 – confirmed by testing the squashed commit and its parent.

  The same problem applies to buildTimeTrend (the "trend" link in a job's build history).

  Hi danielbeck ,
  
  I would like to work on this issue for my first contribution to Jenkins. I have setup the project and was able to reproduce the issue on latest version of master branch. I'll be working on it. Any information regarding where the status icons are located or which files are associated with the issue, would be great!

  devrish Thanks for your interest in contributing, but I had already started on this one before your comment and just saw it now.
  
  In this case, Use symbols for build status #8705 (comment) pointed me in the right direction.

  danielbeck Don't know if related, but the spinning icons look off center anytime I'm not on 100% magnification (Safari/Mac),
  
  Above 100% the rotation is within the circle but not happening around the circle center:
    
  
  Under 100% the rotation is outside the circle so most of time no spinning is seen at all:
    
  
  It's not happening only in "Icon Legend" screen but on any screen having the animation.
  
  Let me know if I should open a new issue. Thanks!
