Disable fast failing on GitHub Actions

Description

The fail-fast option is enabled by default on GitHub Actions. This means if a job fails, all other jobs that have not yet run get automatically cancelled.

This is good for being alerted sooner to a failure, but bad when you're trying to identify if a failure is specific to one job or all jobs because all other remaining jobs get cancelled.

I propose setting fail-fast to false in our config.

Build/Test Tools: Disable fail-fast for PHPUnit testing.

In GitHub Actions, there is a fail-fast option that will cancel all incomplete jobs within a workflow as soon as one failure is encountered. This defaults to true.

This is great for alerting you of a failure faster, but does not give you the full picture of what is failing. For example, it’s possible that there is a failing test on 2 versions of PHP, but not others. If fail-fast is enabled, it’s impossible to know this.

Even with fail-fast disabled, the workflow will still report a failure if one or more jobs produce a failing result.

Props johbillion, jorbin.
Fixes #52612.
