gitlab-workhorse binary package is now built with src:gitlab but this 
is still in NEW.

https://ftp-master.debian.org/new/gitlab_14.0.10-1.html

So once this is accepted and we can upload it to unstable (some 
dependencies are only in experimental right now), we can remove the 
src:gitlab-workhorse package from the archive.
