In order to avoid getting rate limited when checking if previous cache already exists use the Github REST API that supports listing active keys.
This means additional GITHUB_TOKEN access is also
needed in addition to the RUNTIME_TOKEN needed for the cache API. The implementation is done with a fallback - if GITHUB_TOKEN is passed then it is used, if not then the old method checking individual cache records is still used.
Depends on tonistiigi/go-actions-cache#19
