Can't run stale cells if queued #352

Description

@Antyos

Describe the bug

  1. Run cell A which takes a long time to compute.
  2. Cell B relies on cell A, so it will queue up to run.
  3. Modify cell B (e.g., forgot to change something), it becomes marked as stale.
  4. Run cell B with ctrl+enter so that it will queue up to run (even if it runs once with the original code, I would still want it to queue to run again with the new code).
  5. When cell A finishes running and cell B runs, it will still be marked stale because it won't have run the new code.
