🚀 [Feature]: Release-triggering file patterns now configurable via workflow input

[Marius Storhaug (MariusStorhaug)]

Repositories can now control which file changes trigger build, test, and publish stages through a new ImportantFilePatterns setting. Previously, only changes to src/ and README.md were recognized as significant — this was hardcoded and could not be overridden. Repositories that ship additional important files (e.g., examples/, custom config) can now declare their own patterns.

• Fixes Make release-triggering file patterns configurable via settings file #278

New: Configurable important file patterns

Two ways to configure which files trigger releases:

Via settings file (.github/PSModule.yml) — takes highest priority:

ImportantFilePatterns:
  - '^src/'
  - '^README\.md$'
  - '^examples/'

Via workflow input (newline-separated) — used when settings file does not define it:

jobs:
  Process:
    uses: PSModule/Process-PSModule/.github/workflows/workflow.yml@v1
    with:
      ImportantFilePatterns: |
        ^src/
        ^README\.md$
        ^examples/

Resolution order: settings file → workflow input → hardcoded defaults (^src/, ^README\.md$).

The setting fully replaces the defaults when configured — include the default patterns in your list if you still want them. An empty array (ImportantFilePatterns: []) is a valid override that means no file changes trigger releases.

Changed: PR skip comment now reflects configured patterns

The PR comment posted when no important files changed now dynamically lists the actual patterns in effect, with proper Markdown escaping for patterns containing pipes or backticks.

Changed: Invalid patterns now fail fast

User-provided patterns are validated as regular expressions at settings resolution time. Invalid patterns produce a clear error message instead of crashing during the file-change detection loop.

Technical Details

• workflow.yml: Added ImportantFilePatterns string input, passed through to Get-Settings job.
• Get-Settings.yml: Added matching input, passed through to Get-PSModuleSettings action. Bumped action reference to v1.5.0 (1e3d156).
• README.md: Documented the new input in the Inputs table, Configuration table, defaults YAML example, and rewrote the "Important file change detection" section with both configuration methods and resolution order.
