Copilot e6bd4e6970 feat: add client-id input and deprecate app-id (#353)
GitHub now recommends using a GitHub App's Client ID for authentication.
This PR adds a first-class `client-id` input, keeps `app-id` available
for compatibility, and makes the migration path explicit in both runtime
behavior and documentation.

### Action inputs

- Adds a new `client-id` input
- Removes `required` from `app-id`
- Marks `app-id` as deprecated in `action.yml`

### Runtime behavior

- Updates input parsing to prefer `client-id`
- Falls back to `app-id` for existing workflows
- Adds a clear error when neither `client-id` nor `app-id` is provided

### Docs

- Updates the README to recommend `client-id`
- Switches usage examples to `client-id`
- Documents that `app-id` is deprecated and that `client-id` takes
precedence if both are set

### Regression coverage

- Adds a focused test proving a client-ID-shaped value works through the
new `client-id` input
- Adds coverage for the missing-ID validation path
- Updates snapshots to lock in the new metadata and runtime behavior

### Resulting usage

Users can migrate to the new input name directly:

```yaml
- uses: actions/create-github-app-token@v3
  with:
    client-id: ${{ vars.GITHUB_APP_CLIENT_ID }}
    private-key: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_APP_PRIVATE_KEY }}
```

Tests

Add one test file per scenario. You can run them in isolation with:

node tests/post-token-set.test.js

All tests are run together in tests/index.js, which can be executed with Node's built-in test runner

node --test tests/index.js

or with npm

npm test

How the tests work

The output from the tests is captured into a snapshot (tests/index.js.snapshot). It includes all requests sent by our scripts to verify it's working correctly and to prevent regressions.

To update snapshots after an intentional change:

node --test --test-update-snapshots tests/index.js

How to add a new test

We have tests both for the main.js and post.js scripts.
