Pre/post-deployment jobs using dependsOn don't seem to work as documented

[georgek]

Describe the bug

Following the docs here: https://fluxcd.io/flux/use-cases/running-jobs/

It seems that when these resources are updated it can happen that deploy gets run before pre-deploy, because pre-deploy was already ready from a previous run.

Steps to reproduce

1. Follow the docs here: https://fluxcd.io/flux/use-cases/running-jobs/
2. Upgrade the Kustomizations (e.g. to a new image version),
3. Repeat until you observe the deploy being run before the pre-deploy.

Expected behavior

deploy waits for pre-deploy.
