Dashboard variables: Incorrect variable values for variables with dependencies

### What happened? I have a dashboard with 3 dashboard variables: Variable1 Variable2 Variable3 Variable3 is using a value from Variable2, and Variable2 is using a value from Variable1. So Variable3 is dependant on Variable2, and Variable2 is dependant on Variable1. Therefore, the order of loading the values should be: Variable1 Variable2 Variable3 This has always worked as expected, including in version 11.6.5. From version 12, this behavior is different, and the order of loading variables with dependencies are not enforced. This results in bugs, where the panels using the variables are not using the correct values, if they are using values from variables with dependencies. Let's say a panel is using a variable from Variable3, and Variable3 is dependant on Variable2. If Variable3 is loaded before Variable2, the value of Variable3 will be wrong, and the panel will be using incorrect variable values. It looks like version 12 and above is loading the variables correctly in the beginning, but after the initial loading, it loads the variables again in random order. E.g.: Load order of variables in version 11.6.5: Variable1 Variable2 Variable3 Example of load order of variables in version 12 and above: Variable1 <- correct Variable2 <- correct Variable3 <- correct Variable1 <- everything from here on is random on every load Variable2 Variable3 Variable3 Variable2 Variable3 Variable3 The following shows how it works correctly in version 11.6.5: https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/5d6b3a1b-e880-4aa2-9cda-33e4fea81183 The following shows how it works in version 12 and above (this is from version 12.1.1): https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3eaaf598-41e5-48d3-93d9-93d93cb71582 ### What did you expect to happen? Expected behavior should be the one from version 11.6.5 (and all version prior to version 12). ### Did this work before? Works fine in all Grafana version before version 12. Also works fine in version 11.6.5. ### How do we reproduce it? I have created a …
