Consistent 403: rate limit exceeded

Hi,

I am consistently getting this error even after several reruns.

Run bwoodsend/setup-winlibs-action@v1.7

My setup is:

- name: Setup WinLibs
      uses: bwoodsend/setup-winlibs-action@v1.7
      with:
        add_to_path: true
        tag: 12.2.0-15.0.6-10.0.0-msvcrt-r3

You can try running off the api-limit branch for now.

- name: Setup WinLibs
      uses: bwoodsend/setup-winlibs-action@api-limit
      with:
        add_to_path: true
        tag: 12.2.0-15.0.6-10.0.0-msvcrt-r3

That authenticates its REST API requests using the built-in GITHUB_TOKEN that Actions provides so that the hourly rate limit becomes 5000 per user (of which this action uses 3 per run) rather than 60 per IP address (where I wouldn't be surprised if GitHub's fleet of runners all count as one address).

There seems to be a separate issue in GitHub's API where it sporadically throws 500 server errors. I can reproduce that one locally using minimal code so I'm taking that issue to GitHub support.

Fixed in v1.8.
