Issue/Introduction
Error Message : N/A
When modifying a Workflow at runtime and adding a new task with the dependency status ANY_OK, if the previous task has already finished with ENDED_OK, the added task will never start.
Cause type: Defect Root Cause: Adding a dependency did not work with MODIFY_TASK, if the source task of the dependency has already ended. ADD_DEPENDENCY added an additional predecessor even the task has already ended and after committing the changes, the task would wait forever.
