CompatHelper on GHA: Started erroring with pkg_server_registry_url not defined

A few days ago our CompatHelper started erroring with the message that

ERROR: LoadError: UndefVarError: pkg_server_registry_url not defined

It looks like you're using CompatHelper v2. Can you upgrade to CompatHelper v3?

[kellertuer]

Ah, interesting, I will try, but I fear that will not run on a PR? I would prefer not to push such a test directly to master.

Actions should run updated workflows in a PR.

[kellertuer]

Sure, but this is just a scheduled GHA that does not run on push/pull/PR.

Ah I could manually trigger running the GHA from that branch and it runs fine. So upgrading to version 3 resolved the problem.
