Description

If you try to run a job invocation but there is no Smart Proxy with the Dynflow feature, the task will fail. Debugging the task from the user point of view is basically impossible as it doesn't contain any meaningful information. From the foreman administrator point of view, there's a log "Could not use any proxy. Consider configuring remote_execution_global_proxy or remote_execution_fallback_proxy in settings (RuntimeError)" with the error.

Verifying there's a proxy with these characteristics before running the job would be more user-friendly.

Actually the same issue as #12288, it's just because that bug is hiding the error. Once that's fixed you do actually get feedback in the UI that no proxy was available for that host. Marking this one dupe since #12288 includes the traceback.
