Make nightly compiler and runtime build failures fatal
[reviewed by @mppf]
Previously, if the compiler or runtime build failed we would retry
without optimizations. This was added a long time ago (726865ee4b)
when the build was less stable and we didn’t have smoke testing like
we do today. The original intention was to allow us to get some
nightly results even if the optimized build failed, but I can’t
remember this happening in many years. The retry build has confused
us recently for transient build issues, so just make build issues
always a fatal error to avoid confusion. We may lose a night of
testing for these configurations with transient errors, but I don’t
think that’s a huge deal and we should work to address those issues
instead of relying on the retry mechanism.
