Is there a way to stop an airflow dag if enough of certain tasks fail? Eg.
have collection of tasks that all do same thing for different values

for dataset in list_of_datasets:
    task_1 = BashOperator(task_id="task_1_%s" % dataset["id"], ...)
    task_2 = BashOperator(task_id="task_2_%s" % dataset["id"], ...)
    task_3 = BashOperator(task_id="task_3_%s" % dataset["id"], ...)
    task_1 >> task_2 >> task_3

and if, say any 5 instances of task_2 fail, then it means something bigger
is wrong with the underlying process used for task_2 (as opposed to the
individual dataset being processed in the particular task instance) and
that that tasks is likely not going to succeed for any other instance of
that task, so the whole dag should stop or skip to a later /
alternative-branching task.

Is there a way to enforce this by setting something in the task
declarations? Any other common workarounds for this kind of situation
(something like a "some_failed" kind of trigger rule)?
