Changing video privacy while studio edit job is running causes transcoding/storyboard/transcript to fail

[matthijskooijman]

Describe the current behavior

I noticed that some video had failed jobs after editing the video in the studio, which causes the video to be stuck in the "TO EDIT" state, without any way to get out of it. After some digging, I could reproduce this by changing the video privacy from public to private while the studio edition job was running.

I think this really indicates two issues:

1. Changing the privacy causes the job to fail, which should not happen.
2. If the job fails, then the video is stuck in "TO EDIT", without any way to retry transcoding, or to get it out of that state.

Steps to reproduce

1. Upload a video, wait for transcoding to complete, set it to public
2. Open the studio, chop off a few seconds from the start of the video
3. While the STUDIO_EDITION job is running, set the video to private
4. See the storyboard/transcript jobs fail

Looks like the video was moved out of the private directory, and then cannot be found when starting the transcode job.

Describe the expected behavior

No jobs should fail, the jobs should be processed in order, or be updated to reference the right filename at the time the job is started. Or updating the privacy (i.e. moving the file) should be disallowed while jobs are in progress.
