To reference metadata about composite actions, GitHub Actions provides
the `github.action_` context, including `github.action_path`,
`github.action_ref`, and `github.action_repository`.

GitHub Actions supports nested composite actions with a recursion limit
of 9 (9 nested composite actions). Unfortunately `github.action_` values
are not propagated correctly when running nested composite actions.
This is a bug in the GitHub Actions runner.

The suggested workaround is to use inputs to set the correct values.
This commit will implement the suggested workaround.
