#56407: Rerun GitHub Action workflows on the first failure

It's fairly common for GitHub Action workflows to fail because of several
different types of errors. Some examples include:
- Chromium timeout errors
- WordPress.org hiccups when making requests within PHP unit tests
- NPM install errors
- Docker container registry timout and connection issues.
In almost all cases (except when there are service level outages),
rerunning the workflow will result in a successful outcome. Because this
is currently manual, it's sometimes forgotten.
Our Actions workflows should attempt to fix these runs by automatically
rerunning failed jobs.
