Please set the action output as declared in the action.yaml

This line

promises a GitHub Action output (which is the standard way of moving information out of an action), and expected to be steps.my-step-id.outputs.deploymentId, but this line

https://github.com/newrelic/deployment-marker-action/blob/60142df2a3f5c23d3294486f474299b8f490cd90/entrypoint.sh#L23

sets an env var. The README.md shows the env var usage:

but it's not a GHA native/idiomatic way of passing outputs.

Please update the action so that it does not pollute the global env namespace with an un-prefixed env var.

-echo "deploymentId=$deploymentId" >> $GITHUB_ENV
+echo "deploymentId=$deploymentId" >> "${GITHUB_OUTPUT}"
