This will retry up to 3 times if we hit networks flakes updating our submodules. It will also allow us to easily inject other stability fixes to this step in the future.

## Description
I would like to suggest a security practice recommended by the [OpenSSF Scorecard][scorecard-repo] which is to hash pin dependencies to prevent typosquatting and tag renaming attacks.
The change would only be applied to GitHub workflows.
This means hash pinning GitHub Workflow actions.
Along with hash-pinning dependencies, I also recommend adopting dependabot (or other dependency update tool) to help keep the dependencies up to date. Most tools can update hashes and associated semantic version comments.
Any questions or concerns just let me know.
Thanks!
## Additional Context
A tag renaming attack is a type of attack whereby an attacker:
- Hijack an action.
- Upload a malicious version.
- Replace existing tags with malicious versions.
A [typosquatting attack][typosquatting] is a type of attack whereby an attacker:
- Create a malicious package
- Publish it with a similar name of a known package (example: numpi instead of numpy)

For now, this only covers linux on the two architectures we have testing support for. However, it serves as a good sanity check and can be expanded in the future.

This will make PRs from forked repositories significantly less painful, since they'll agree on which version of each action to use. OTOH, we'll have a separate repo that needs to be maintained, and changes to it will need to be coordinated and versioned carefully. This will likely need to be done less often though now that our infrastructure is stable.
