X Title: Add repository property for configuration files by mbg · Pull Request #3963 · github/codeql-action

Description: This PR is the first in a series of changes which will add the ability to point the CodeQL Action at a configuration file using a repository property. This PR adds the new repository property and uses its value, if provided and no explicit config-file input is provided for the CodeQL Action in the workflow. In other words, the config-file input has priority over the value of the repository property. Risk assessment For internal use only. Please select the risk level of this change: Low risk: Changes are fully under feature flags, or have been fully tested and validated in pre-production environments and are highly observable, or are documentation or test only. Which use cases does this change impact? Workflow types: Advanced setup - Impacts users who have custom CodeQL workflows. Managed - Impacts users with dynamic workflows (Default Setup, Code Quality, ...). Products: Code Scanning - The changes impact analyses when analysis-kinds: code-scanning. Code Quality - The changes impact analyses when analysis-kinds: code-quality. Other first-party - The changes impact other first-party analyses. Environments: Dotcom - Impacts CodeQL workflows on github.com and/or GitHub Enterprise Cloud with Data Residency. GHES - Impacts CodeQL workflows on GitHub Enterprise Server. How did/will you validate this change? Unit tests - I am depending on unit test coverage (i.e. tests in .test.ts files). If something goes wrong after this change is released, what are the mitigation and rollback strategies? Rollback - Change can only be disabled by rolling back the release or releasing a new version with a fix. How will you know if something goes wrong after this change is released? Telemetry - I rely on existing telemetry or have made changes to the telemetry. Dashboards - I will watch relevant dashboards for issues after the release. Consider whether this requires this change to be released at a particular time rather than as part of a regular release. Alerts - New or existing monitors will trip if something goes wrong with this change. Are there any special considerations for merging or releasing this change?
