Collect artifacts even if step failed

If we have powershell step with code

New-OctopusArtifact "file.txt"
exit 1

the artifact would not be collected.

We use OctopusDeploy to perform integration tests and we need to fail deploy if tests failed, but collect test results to analyze problem.

+1. We’re running acceptance tests as a step and want to capture the test results but fail the deployment when a test fails. Just noticed we don’t get any results when we fail the step.

Perhaps a flag on New-OctopusArtifact could preserve default behavior but let us force the artifact to be collected even on failure?
