Purpose

If we execute a lot of Arnold command, this will reach the Github API rate limiting.
When we reach the limit Arnold will fail because it can parse the Github response and stop with this error

jq: error (at <stdin>:1): Cannot index object with number

Proposal

Use the environment variable GITHUB_TOKEN to authenticate to the Github API and increase the API rate limiting.

Github has an API rate limiting. This rate limiting could
Be increase if we are authenticated. If the environment
variable GITHUB_TOKENiIs defined Arnold will use it to auth.

I prefer declare which is more explicit as it can cast vars:
