ci: Add Expense Contribution workflow

[seanpoulter]

Proposed Changes

• Add workflow from webdriverio/expense-action

[seanpoulter]

@christian-bromann, I'm not sure if you want this change here or any other pipelines/actions.
Alternatively, we could set this up as a Starter Workflow that would let you configure and commit it to a new repo from Actions.

Do you know if adding the workflow here will propagate it automatically to all other repositories in this organisation?

Do you think this is possible to do in webdriverio/expense-action?

Unfortunately it doesn't propagate like that. Some folks put their reusable workflows in this directory (like this blog) but I believe we could reference it from webdriverio/expense-action as well.

The "starter workflows" have to be defined in the .github repository for the organization. Then we'd be presented with an option to add a new Workflow using the workflow template. It doesn't solve the maintenance problem though.

We could try to automate updates from webdriverio/expense-action by adding to script/. I tried using the gh CLI and it didn't like to gh pr create without prompting for user input. 🤦

I think we essentially doing this by referencing it as GitHub Action.

Yeah, we could have an automated script that clones all repos, commits the given workflow and raises a PR if the workflow has changes but for now I think we can just keep everything as is. If it turns out that we tweak the workflow options a lot, it makes sense to get back to this.

Will close this PR as I don't think we need an expense flow for this particular repository, given we don't expect any non member contributions here. Thanks for all your work!
