`octokit` instance from README examples doesn't work

[mutantcornholio]

Simple examples like this

            const script = require('./path/to/script.js')
            console.log(script({octokit, context}))

lead to

ReferenceError: octokit is not defined

Replacing octokit with github works. Is the README wrong and should be changed to github only, or is it a bug?

Until a month ago, and i guess still in the stable/release branch, this variable does not exist. I dunny, if they will release it with v8 or patch v7.

your code is called like this:

const result = await callAsyncFunction(
  {
    require: wrapRequire,
    __original_require__: __non_webpack_require__,
    github,
    context,
    core,
    exec,
    glob,
    io
  },
  script
)

Then octokit was added as an alias for github:

4024541
#508

      require: wrapRequire,
      __original_require__: __non_webpack_require__,
      github,
+      octokit: github,
      context,
      core,
      exec,

But when you console.log(github) it's an Octokit object

    '2': NewOctokit {
      request: [Function],
      graphql: [Function],
      log: [Object],
      hook: [Function],
      auth: [AsyncFunction],
      rest: [Object],
      paginate: [Function],
      retry: [Object]
    },

Summary: octokit variable was introduced as an alias to the github variable, and github itself is actually octokit object. So we have an alias with the right name, created from a variable with the wrong name, and in the end pointing to the right object 💫

github points to the right object, but not octokit

👋 Sorry about that, we're not ready to release a new major version of this action with the changes in #508 so the README updates were premature.

#557 will fix the README examples.
