Subject: [PATCH] .github/workflows: allow codecov to report without failing CI
 build

### Describe Your Changes

The `fail_ci_if_error` flag only affects the upload step and does not
control
Codecov's status checks (e.g., codecov/patch, codecov/project). My prior
tests
did not surface this behavior.

Switched to 'informational' mode per Codecov docs to avoid blocking CI.
See:

https://docs.codecov.com/docs/common-recipe-list#set-non-blocking-status-checks

Tested in https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/9146
