#1008: Last build status only reports last failure for multiple non-halt-on-
failure steps

 Sometimes there may be a string of steps in a build process that are all
 non-haltOnFailure (due to wanting to process certain types of errors in
 previous steps), but non-expected types of failure in earlier steps causes
 later steps to fail as well. In such cases, the fact that the grid/tgrid
 and waterfall last-build status blocks only report the final failure in
 the chain can be misleading.

 Perhaps we should either a) report all failed steps, or b) report the
 first failed step and a note like "Failed test (and 2 more)".
