Design: Notifications about pipeline HOT 8 CLOSED

A small addition might be to add notification.always which will be trigger at the end irrespective of Task run exit code.
For example:

kind: Pipeline
...
spec:
    tasks:
        - name: unit-test-kritis
          taskRef:
              name: make
          inputSourceBindings:
              - inputName: workspace
                sourceKey: kritis
          params:
              - name: makeTarget
                value: test
          notifications:
               failure:
                   ....
               success:
                  .....
               always:
                  .....

Simple use case would updating PR/Slack with a message confirming a test run or an docker image upload.

It would also be nice if the pipeline itself could have a generic success/failure notification. Perhaps it could also be templated to accept the task that failed? Having to put notifications for each and every task can be tedious and lead to copy and paste mistakes. This is something that I find Concourse is lacking.

@bobcatfish if thing we got enough input on the design doc now to close this issue and start prototyping - so I would close this one.
