 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.
