GitHub Action: Config Blanks

This action helps create dynamic configuration files during workflow. JSON in key-value format is passed to the action input. The key is the path to the file or directory. The value can be both text and object. An object in value is only supported for file formats such as YAML and JSON. To create a file in YAML format, the file must have the extension .yml or .yaml. Under other conditions, a JSON file is created from the object or list. If the content is null, the file is not created. To create a directory, the key must end with a slash. And content is not taken into account.
