Add fetch parameter

[mmkal]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

It's often useful to mix-and-match github requests with requests to other services, e.g. the Vercel API, various internal APIs, etc. etc.

Describe the solution you'd like

Provide a fetch argument, just like github, context, core, glob, io, exec etc.

Describe alternatives you've considered

This issue seems to be trying to achieve a similar thing: #272

I also tried using github.request(...) at first, but while you can hit non-GitHub APIs, it's impossible to override the authorization header, for example. If that's an issue, it's one for the octokit repo, though.

Additional context

@octokit/request already depends on node-fetch so by using the same version, it wouldn't even add to the bundled size of this action, I don't think.

I'd be happy to open a PR for this if it would be accepted.

Another alternative would be to upgrade the action to Node 18, which comes with global fetch.

Only Node 12 (deprecated) and Node 16 are supported right now for actions - https://docs.github.com/en/actions/creating-actions/metadata-syntax-for-github-actions#runsusing

fetch is now available in https://github.com/actions/github-script/releases/tag/v6.4.0

I'll update v6 tomorrow once I've validated that there are no unexpected issues.
