#1145519 telepathy-qt: build tests fail and therefore any failure is ignored

telepathy-qt's build tests are failing. This was hidden in the May
2026 upload because dh_auto_test wasn't being set with the correct
build directory for the dual qt5 & qt6 builds.

The build test failures are currently being ignored. If we aren't able
to fix the build test failures soon, it may be better to skip the
failing tests and stop ignoring the remaining test failures. This way
we can still detect when something breaks telepathy-qt.
