feat: add passing of Renovate environment variables (#534)

Inputs may now be provided using environment variables, as well as the existing inputs. None of the
inputs are required any more, so it is possible to use only environment variables. Nevertheless all
inputs must be provided in some way, either using the input or their corresponding environment
variables.

BREAKING CHANGE: The `configurationFile` input no longer has a default value. This means that a
value for it is now required using the `configurationFile` input or the `RENOVATE_CONFIG_FILE`
environment variable.

 ## Options
 
+Options can be passed using the inputs of this action or the corresponding environment variables. When both are passed, the input takes precedence over the environment variable. For the available environment variables see the Renovate [Self-Hosted Configuration](https://docs.renovatebot.com/self-hosted-configuration/) and [Self-Hosting](https://docs.renovatebot.com/self-hosting/) docs.

 Configuration file to configure Renovate. The supported configurations files can be one of the configuration files listed in the Renovate Docs for [Configuration Options](https://docs.renovatebot.com/configuration-options/) or a JavaScript file that exports a configuration object. For both of these options, an example can be found in the [example](./example) directory.
