Resolves #8864

Description

What is the purpose of this pull request?

This pull request:

• This pull request fixes the CI pipeline failing due to missing SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL secret by making the Slack notification step non-fatal across all workflow files.

Changes:

• Added continue-on-error: true to Slack notification steps in all affected workflow files
• This allows the actual build/test steps to execute even when the Slack webhook secret is not configured
• Enables the CI to surface the real bundle build errors that were previously masked

I consulted AI to understand the CI failure patterns and identify that the Slack notification step was blocking the pipeline. It helped me analyze the issue and suggested the continue-on-error: true solution. All workflow file modifications were authored manually by myself after understanding the suggested approach.
