ci(jscpd): merge target branch in jscpd to avoid false negatives. (aws#6572)

## Problem
- Follow up to
aws#6564 (review).

## Solution
- It appears that there is an undocumented "feature" that GHA don't run
when there is a merge conflict. See
[here](https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/11265)
- This means we don't have to handle the failure case where a merge
fails.
- Add fake config identity to mitigate this error:

/>


## Notes
Going to let this sit and make sure it works as changes are merged into
master.
