Allow a list of tasks to fail without stopping the execution of downstream tasks in the flow.
If any child task of the AllowFailure task fails, the flow will stop executing this block of tasks (i.e. the next tasks in the AllowFailure block will no longer be executed), but the flow execution of the tasks, following the AllowFailure task, will continue.
