Allow review-build-cng jobs to fail

Matthias Käppler requested to merge mk-allow-cng-failure into master

What does this MR do and why?

Allow review-build-cng jobs to fail.

Otherwise we can run into situations where an MR pipeline is green, and because a single CNG job fails downstream it blocks the MR merge. This happened in !70874 (merged) where a single downstream job failed with a connection error when downloading file, which turned the upstream MR build red. Even retrying that single job downstream will not fix the upstream pipeline, so the entire CNG stage has to re-run.

Most MRs will have no impact on build success in CNG, and the CNG job is only required to prepare review apps, which is a manual step anyway. (only in some cases it is)

MR acceptance checklist

This checklist encourages us to confirm any changes have been analyzed to reduce risks in quality, performance, reliability, security, and maintainability.
