Use GitHub action workflow to leverage secrets stored in Vault using vault-action.

# GitHub actions
Workflows in GitHub Actions can make use of secrets stored in Vault by using a
[`vault-action`](https://github.com/marketplace/actions/hashicorp-vault) step.
## Example
Here is an example `vault-action` step in a workflow:
```yaml
jobs:
build:
# ...
steps:
# ...
- name: Import Secrets
uses: hashicorp/vault-action@v2.4.0
with:
url: https://vault.example.com:8200
token: ${{ secrets.VAULT_TOKEN }}
caCertificate: ${{ secrets.VAULT_CA_CERT }}
secrets: |
secret/data/ci/aws accessKey | AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID ;
secret/data/ci/aws secretKey | AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY ;
secret/data/ci npm_token
```
This example will authenticate to Vault instance at `https://vault.example.com:8200` with the GitHub secrets defined in
`VAULT_TOKEN` and `VAULT_CA_CERT`, and will add environment variables available for next steps in the workflow:
- The secret at path `secret/data/ci/aws` with the key `accessKey` available in the environment variable `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID`
- The secret at path `secret/data/ci/aws` with the key `secretKey` available in the environment variable `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`
- The secret at path `secret/data/ci` with the key `npm_token` available in the environment variable `NPM_TOKEN`
