Github action to maximize the available disk space on Github runners
As composite-based actions now has [support for conditionals](https://github.blog/changelog/2021-11-09-github-actions-conditional-execution-of-steps-in-actions/), we can now run a separate script that runs on Windows and macOS to maximize available disk space.
Some compilations need a lot of rams and sometimes, the runner will timeout and it isn't because of lack of ram as you can assign gigs of swap ram, it...
For two weeks or so the root partition and the temp partition has been swapped on around 20% of the runners. Which results in temp getting bigger and root staying...

This option removes a bunch of packages that are big. Results in around 5GB of free space. Based on this script: https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/master/tools/azure-pipelines/free_disk_space.sh
Are the LVM operations required? Would it be possible to just remove the software and skip the LVM step? I only ask because I'm not sure what maximum value I...
This is a very useful action, and saved us a ton of headache! From the README: > At the time of writing, public [Github-hosted runners](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-github-hosted-runners/about-github-hosted-runners) are using [Azure DS2_v2 virtual...
