github workflows: allow failure when installing optional deps with older perls #315

Closed eserte closed 1 year ago

Test::Deep requires now at least 5.12 and is a dependency for some of the optional and recommended modules, which means that the github workflow started to fail for older perls. Fixed this by using a "continue-on-error" specification. Alternatively "if" could be used to skip the installations completely.

Thank you very much for noticing this and providing a fix! Based on discussion with rjbs and toolchain decisions made at PTS I have decided to update the minimum version for Devel::Cover to 5.12 too so I won't merge this, but I do appreciate you putting effort into a solution.
