In order to further reduce intra-dag task scheduling lag we add an optimization: when a task has just finished executing (success or failure) we can look at the downstream tasks of just that task, and then make scheduling decisions for those tasks there -- we've already got the dag loaded, and we know they are likely actionable as we just finished. We should set tasks to scheduled if we can (but no further, i.e. not to queued, as the scheduler has to make that decision with info about the Pool usage etc.).
