Update actions to avoid set-output

1

We use set-output in a few of our actions: [build_nilrt.yml](https://github.com/ni/grpc-device/blob/main/.github/workflows/build_nilrt.yml), [create_release.yml](https://github.com/ni/grpc-device/blob/main/.github/workflows/create_release.yml), and [validate_linux_rt.yml](https://github.com/ni/grpc-device/blob/main/.github/workflows/validate_linux_rt.yml). It is planned to be disabled on May 31, 2023: https://github.blog/changelog/2022-10-11-github-actions-deprecating-save-state-and-set-output-commands/ We should update them to use...

We should add small READMEs to the codegen/metadata folders for the ones coming from [Scrapigen](https://github.com/ni/grpc-device-scrapigen).

Note options for disowning server process on Linux / RT

It was brought up by a support engineer that it'd be nice to have a snippet explaining some of the options for disowning the ni_grpc_device_server process on Linux / RT...

Brought up in [this PR](https://github.com/ni/grpc-device/pull/1055#issuecomment-2098888440) comment, but the XNET test `ConvertFramesToFromSignalsFromExample_CompareFrames_ValuesMatch` seems to be failing consistently.
