Automate updates with GitHub Actions

See original GitHub issue

Currently the repository is updated by a script that runs locally on @paulirish’s machine. We’d like to move this to a GitHub Actions cronjob workflow. This involves…

Removing the dependency on a local chromium/src checkout: #265
Removing the dependency on yarn: #267 (not strictly required, but simplifies things)
Automating the npm publish process via GitHub Actions (instead of requiring on locale machine configs): #268
Adding a new workflow to automate daily updates: #271

An upstream CDP change just landed: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromium/src/+/3749625 This allowed us to test the actual processing logic through the GitHub Actions workflow for the first time. After a few more tweaks (6d6d51eb93edc54a0d015e59f220a2e9ad9f333, 99db35730cedf76819489b2635a6efa9b08becf8, 6870df846388eeb05bf9c85bc9650f9c56501dfc, and 5cde7486078960bfd85083075c305040985dbef9) we just had our first successful, actually-updating-something run! https://github.com/ChromeDevTools/devtools-protocol/runs/7277823196?check_suite_focus=true#step:3:5 It correctly created the Git tag which correctly triggered the npm publish-on-tag workflow: https://github.com/ChromeDevTools/devtools-protocol/actions/runs/2647956072 and published to npm:

After some intense GitHub Actions debugging by creating a temporary workflow and repeatedly force-pushing to master like some amateur, I found the root cause. You’re not gonna believe how simple the fix is: a7636c94522c07cf4626dcd64b8993618d0f7192
