Description

Having some job with filled queue with onQueue call.
When I call Bus::chain([$job1, $job2]) they are pushed to specified queue.
When I call Bus::batch([$job1, $job2]) they are pushed to queue default.
Documentation https://laravel.com/docs/11.x/queues#batch-connection-queue is not very clear about this behaviour, only mentions, that queue should be same, and it is same.
Such inconsistent behavior between Chain and Batch is very confusing.

It this behaviour a bug (in this case i will provide PR with fix in code) or it is expected (in this case i will provide PR to documentation, clarifying this behavior) ?

Steps To Reproduce

create ProcessPodcast job with onQueue (second example in) https://laravel.com/docs/11.x/queues#dispatching-to-a-particular-queue
Run Bus::chain([new ProcessPodcast]) and Bus::batch([new ProcessPodcast]) and see, that batch send job to default queue, while chain to processing queue.

I believe you should be able to follow PendingChain code by getting the first job and get $firstJob->queue from there, but at the same time this also feels incorrect as if 2nd...n job has a different queue it would still use the first job's queue.

@crynobone currently the question is if such difference in behaviour between chain and batch is bug, or it is expected behaviour?
Depending on it i'll bring PR to code or to documentation.

@taylorotwell , please give some comments.
Do you think it's better to respect jobs connection and queue (it's possible) to make chain and batch behaviour more simular. Or better to clarify documentation?
