Checkout v1 has a known flake:
https://github.com/actions/checkout/issues/23#issuecomment-572688577.
For our linter to pass, we need to checkout our full history (default
depth is 1 commit). We could set fetch-depth, but we will eventually
move that depth past the linter's start point commit and need to
implement another fix. Indead, we add an extra step in our linter to
fetch full history so that the linter reference commit is found.
The continue-on-error was added to make sure the log files of the
failed itests would always be uploaded. But this has the side effect
of marking the whole job successful, even if the itest job itself
failed. The failure condition in the log file steps already solve
that, so the continue-on-error is not needed anymore.
