Close #5666

This PR updates the LSF executor to treat UNKWN as "HOLD" instead of "ERROR", meaning that Nextflow will wait for the job status to change instead of assuming it has failed

This is because LSF uses this status when it loses contact with a node, which is usually temporary

LSF job status unknown should probably be treated as HOLD not EXIT
