generate-token error with node-20

[sarnold]

This is after upgrading one repo out of many using the same workflow due to Github deprecation warning annotations about upgrading checkout/artifact actions.

Node.js 16 actions are deprecated. Please update the following actions to use Node.js 20: actions/checkout@v3, peter-evans/create-pull-request@v4. For more information see: https://github.blog/changelog/2023-09-22-github-actions-transitioning-from-node-16-to-node-20/.

The many are still working but the one has the above error using checkoutv4:

I've got a large number of repos using the same reusable workflow with this action in it (and checkout v4); currently I'm only seeing a single repo failing with this error.

It looks like we messed up some automation and we were actually seeing this issue for all Dependabot PRs in a specific organisation.
