monorepo: CircleCI should show test results of a prospective merge

[xianny]

Expected Behavior

CircleCI should show test results of a prospective merge. A PR shouldn't "pass" unless the proposed merge also passes.

Current Behavior

Given a PR proposing a merge of compare into base, CI only shows results of the compare branch on its own, ignoring the base branch. If the compare branch has not recently merged base into itself, then CI could pass a PR that causes base to start failing.

Possible Solution

It looks like CircleCI is the only CI/CD tool that doesn't support this out of the box. We can try this workaround: https://discuss.circleci.com/t/show-test-results-for-prospective-merge-of-a-github-pr/1662/14
