Issue

Steps to reproduce

  1. Start a clean bundle of Liferay DXP 7.2 installed with dxp-9
  2. Go to Publishing -> Staging and enable staging for Local Live with page versioning enabled for public and private pages
  3. Create a new Content Page and publish it
  4. Edit the Content Page and add any basic section and publish it. Note that the page is now marked "Ready for Publication"
  5. Try to turn off the slider for Ready for Publication. Note that you are not able to select it, and the cursor turns into a general prohibition sign.
  6. Edit the page and add another basic section and publish it.

Expected Results: When a Content Page that is not marked Ready for Publication is published, it should not be marked "Ready for Publication" automatically. Also, you should be able to unmark a page that has been marked "Ready for Publication". Finally, editing a page and making a change should automatically unmark it as "Ready for Publication".
Actual Results: When a Content Page that is not marked Ready for Publication is published, it is marked "Ready for Publication" automatically.
