Patrick Ellis 4b5e01365c Use in_progress workflow_job example, not queued (#22880)
* Use in_progress workflow_job example, not queued

### tl;dr

This changes the example `workflow_job` payload to be an `in_progress` event instead of `queued` event.

### why

In #22174, I added some keys to the example workflow_job json. This was correct, but by adding non-null _values_, **I introduced a subtle bug**.

It's a bug because a `queued` workflow is—by definition—_not_ yet assigned to a runner. So all the `runner_*` attributes will be `null` in the real world. 

After the workflow becomes `in_progress`, all the values are guaranteed to exist. So let's change the example to be an `in_progress` event, since it's a better example for documentation.

* Explain more about the runner_* attributes in "workflow_job_properties.md"

* Consistentize naming

Key | Type | Description
----|------|-------------
`action`|`string` | The action performed. Can be one of: <ul><li> `queued` - A new job was created.</li><li> `in_progress` - The job has started processing on the runner.</li><li> `completed` - The `status` of the job is `completed`.</li></ul>
`workflow_job`|`object`| The workflow job. Many `workflow_job` keys, such as `head_sha`, `conclusion`, and `started_at` are the same as those in a [`check_run`](#check_run) object.
`workflow_job[status]`|`string`| The current status of the job. Can be `queued`, `in_progress`, or `completed`.
`workflow_job[labels]`|`array`| Custom labels for the job. Specified by the [`"runs-on"` attribute](/actions/reference/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#jobsjob_idruns-on) in the workflow YAML.
`workflow_job[runner_id]`|`integer`| The ID of the runner that is running this job. This will be `null` as long as `workflow_job[status]` is `queued`.
`workflow_job[runner_name]`|`string`| The name of the runner that is running this job. This will be `null` as long as `workflow_job[status]` is `queued`.
`workflow_job[runner_group_id]`|`integer`| The ID of the runner group that is running this job. This will be `null` as long as `workflow_job[status]` is `queued`.
`workflow_job[runner_group_name]`|`string`| The name of the runner group that is running this job. This will be `null` as long as `workflow_job[status]` is `queued`.
