Partially reverts #283.
Applying multiple labels to a PR at the same time can cause multiple webhook events to trigger multiple runs of the same backportable checks in trop. The queue ensures there's only one in-progress at a time, but the existing code creates/updates check runs before entering the queue. Creating a new check run with the same name simply overwrites any existing ones. This situation lead to various race conditions where check runs are modified in ways which lead to an inconsistent result displayed on GitHub. Resolution is simply to only modify the check runs inside the queue (effectively a critical section) to guarantee no one else is touching them.
