Issue details

Currently the action will use the runner installed pulumi version if it's "good enough" to match the version string supplied. This leaves the ability to upgrade to a specific new version of pulumi, but given Pulumi's release cadence, if you wanted to stay on bleeding edge, you'd have to update your actions constantly.

For those of us who want to dogfood to the max, it'd be nice to be able to specify pulumi-version as latest or have an option like always-upgrad-cli that upgrades to the highest possible version allowed by the semver string in pulumi-version.

I think the "pulumi-version" option is just a string so we could just allow "latest" or a semver range there (continuing to default to "^3" when unset)
