This PR brings the [`workflow-inputs`](https://github.com/lorisleiva/workflow-inputs-action) action into the monorepo as a new sibling to `install-solana` and `setup-ubuntu`. It renders the inputs of the current workflow run as a markdown table in the job summary. This is useful for `workflow_dispatch` runs so anyone reviewing later can see what inputs triggered them. Consumers will reference it as `solana-program/actions/workflow-inputs@v1`. Unlike the existing composite actions, this is a JavaScript action bundled with [Vite+](https://viteplus.dev): TypeScript sources live under `workflow-inputs/src/`, and the committed `workflow-inputs/dist/index.js` is what the runner executes. Two new path-scoped CI workflows (`workflow-inputs-ci.yml` and `workflow-inputs-e2e.yml`) are also added to test the action on changes to `workflow-inputs/**`.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
This repo doesn't have a global gitignore 😅 but I guess it can't hurt in case we add one later

| Inspired by a Slack thread where Jon pointed out that GitHub Actions doesn't show the parameters used in a manual workflow run, so figuring out what happened in a deploy after the fact is harder than it should be. This action puts those parameters where you can find them later. |
