When building the JDK on GHA, we should use `make -k` to continue building as much as possible in case of failure, to avoid having developers resubmitting one fix after another.

The additional cost of continuing to build even in a failed build is pretty small compared to the overhead of having to resubmit the entire GHA several times.
