Automatically requeue jobs that are "hung" in status RUNNING, QUEUED or RETRYING

Refer to this case : https://www.ibm.com/mysupport/s/case/500gJ0000041QiyQAE/running-jobs-remain-in-state-ruuning-forever-after-a-network-issue?language=en_US

I am running process instance in BAMOE 8.0.5. My process include a REST call in an aync script task. When the process reaches the asynch service task, a job is registered to complete the workitem in asyc mode. After a net work faillure, making the database to be unreachable, the jobs that were running before the failure remain running for ever. This is a serious problem for us.

Here are the steps to reproduce:
1- Design a process with a async REST task;
2- Start process instance in batch so that there are manny process instances running;
3- Simulate a network faillure by disconnecting the network (in my cas the VPN got disconnected)
4- Go to Business Central and check the jobs, thos that were running before the faluillure will remain in the running state until BAM OE restard
