feat: add task input (#141)

Hi 👋🏻 
This PR adds a `task` input, that lets you change the task assigned to the deployment.

Other housekeeping changes:
- `test` script added to `package.json`
- `getOptionalInput` now can actually return `undefined` (empty strings can cause API errors)
- the CI workflow can now be used on other repos

Closes #140
