@aws-cdk/aws-codepipeline-actions: Parameter not usable in actionName

Cloudformation parameters are not usable in action names.

Reproduction Steps

const projectNameToken = new CfnParameter(this, 'projectName', {
    type: 'String',
});
const sourceAction = new CodeCommitSourceAction({
    actionName: `${projectNameToken.valueAsString}-pipeline-source`,
    repository: repo,
    output: artifact
});

What did you expect to happen?

The parameter is used for the creation of the actionName.

What actually happened?

Unrecognized token key error:
