Prevent duplicate inbox report runs #3192

Description

@charlesvien

When multiple teammates are working in the same PostHog Code project in the same org, the same Inbox reports can appear for everyone (please correct me if I'm wrong and we have a messed up config or something). Right now, if two people both see the same report, they can independently review it and click “make PR,” which can lead to duplicate work.

We’ve already had this happen, my coworker and I both acted on the same report and ended up creating the same PR twice.

It would be helpful if reports had some kind of ownership/status state across the org or project, for example:

A user can “claim” a report before working on it
Claimed reports show who is working on them
Claimed/in-progress reports are grayed out or deprioritized for other users
Reports could optionally be auto-assigned to users in the org/project
If a PR has already been created from a report, that should be clearly visible before another user starts work

The main goal is to prevent duplicate review/PR work when multiple people are using the same Inbox.
