Feature request - instructions for usage on GitHub Actions #79

Description

When experimenting with using this CLI on GitHub Actions I experienced a very long install time using the homebrew approach on a Linux based runner. It was taking about 4.5m to install the CLI. I'm not sure that the bottleneck is there but I was able to download one of the releases directly and it was much faster (see below).

I think adding something to the README (or other documentation) about usage within GitHub Actions could be helpful as this is an increasingly popular platform for workflow automatations.

Here are the steps I used to get the CLI installed and authenticated quickly

- name: Provision cb CLI
  run: |
    curl --silent --location "$(curl --silent https://api.github.com/repos/CrunchyData/bridge-cli/releases/latest | jq -r '.assets[].browser_download_url | select(test("cb-v1.3.0_linux_amd64.zip"))')" -o cb.zip
    unzip ./cb.zip && rm ./cb.zip && sudo mv ./cb /usr/local/bin
    mkdir -p $HOME/.config/cb
    echo "$CRUNCHY_BRIDGE_AUTH" > $HOME/.config/cb/api.crunchybridge.com
  env:
    CRUNCHY_BRIDGE_AUTH: ${secrets.CRUNCHY_BRIDGE_AUTH}
- name: Run cb whoami command
   run: cb whoami
