Enable Merge Queues: GH Action to check for pass/fail SonarQuality Gate

[sethkfman]

What is this about?

This ticket will enable a GH action that can validate a PR for success/fail of SonarCloud Quality Gate.

Scenario

• Test in a standard PR process
  • It should pass/fail in the same manner as the SonarCloud Quality Gate
• Test in a merge queue
  • It should be skipped

    Design

No response

Technical Details

• Create a GH action that can detect the success/fail of the SonarCloud Quality Gate
  • GH action directory
  • Possible options it can be detected looking at the result of a step or comment within the PR
  • Could look at on: issue_comment: types: [created] as trigger for review of pass/fail
• Add a check to the action to skip during Merge Queue Analysis the CLA step check should work here
• Disable the SonarCloud required build step and require this new action. Will require @Cal-L or @sethkfman.

Created a workflow that should check the PR comments and return pass or fail based on the Sonar Cloud Quality Gate comment specifically. Should also detect and skip if in Merge Queue Analysis.

Need someone else with more experience with our workflows to double check this works as expected.
