[NFC] Github action script to run regen.sh for you

[demeritcowboy]

Overview

You can use this in your civicrm-core fork to run regen for free "in the cloud" since it's often difficult to run locally. You can either choose to download the resulting civicrm_generated file or have it push a commit to your branch.

See instructions inside the script but note the extra step needed for testing the PR in the technical details below.

Before

Hard to run locally.

After

2-3 minutes, nothing accidentally trashed on your computer

Technical Details

This requires an extra step to test until it's merged because you need to have a copy of the workflow script itself in master in your fork not the branch or you won't see the dropdown in github. But you can manually put it into your fork's master to test, and then reset --hard your fork's master after.

Another way to test is if you make a branch out of this PR in your fork and then temporarily change the default branch in your fork, under repository settings - branches. Then github will show the dropdown.
