Jesse Hallam c9e71a2dde Remove workflow failure check in favour of Argo-driven version (#25366)
* Simplify workflow failure check

Consolidate the workflow failure check directly into *-master.yml. This results in some code duplication, but makes it much clearer as to what's going on. While we're in here, remove the legacy reference to the `monorepo` branch when triggering.

* just remove the workflow in favour of the Argo version

Background

This document aims to explain the bunch of server and webapp yaml files and their functionality.

The context behind this complexity is that we want new pushes to PR branches to cancel older in-progress and pending CI runs, but we don't want that to happen in master branch. Unfortunately, there is no config knob to control pending workflows and if you set a concurrency group, then pending workflows will always be canceled. Refer to https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/5435 for discussion.

Therefore, we have a template yaml file which is actually the main CI code. That is then imported by {server|webapp}-ci-master.yml and {server|webapp}-ci-pr.yml. The -master.yml files don't have any concurrency limits, but -pr.yml files do.
