Merge branch 'fix/import-error-handling' into 'master'

Fix import error handling

Fixes https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/support-forum/issues/745

This improves import error handling:
- Now if there's an error during importing before the job is scheduled, we also mark the project status as failed.
- Refactored setting the status to failed into one single method.
- Fixed some situations where the error message was missing or simply empty.
