Use workflows in forked repositories

forked-helper.yml workflow helper can help to run custom workflows on the forked repositories.

1. Set ARMBIAN_SELF_DISPATCH_TOKEN secret on your repository with security_events permissions.
2. Helper will dispatch repository_dispatch event armbian on push, release, deployment, pull_request and workflow_dispatch events. All needed event details you can find in client_payload property of the event.
3. Create empty default branch in forked repository
4. Create workflow with repository_dispatch in default branch.
5. Run any need actions in this workflow.

Workflow example:

name: Test Armbian dispatch

on:
  repository_dispatch:
    types: ["armbian"]

jobs:
  show-dispatch:
    name: Show dispatch event details
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
