Viktor VarlandandMateusz Burzyński 225a1e8cbc Add a throttling plugin to the used Octokit instance to retry requests after hitting secondary rate limits (#286)
* fix: prevent hitting github secondary rate limits

Adds the octokit plugin for throttling / rate-limiting to fix the
problem where action runs get blocked with a 403 error[1].

The `github.getOctokit`[2] function accepts a list of plugins, so this
passes in the `throttling` plugin[3] to be hooked into the octokit
instance.

It also needs some configuration to setup the `throttle` mechanisms,
passed in to the `getOctokit` function.

[3]: https://github.com/octokit/plugin-throttling.js

* refactor: change rate limit callback signatures

Based on additional docs, the callbacks seem to have changes to their
signatures[1]. This change aligns this implementation with the docs[2].

* chore: add changeset

* wire up typed throttle options

* Upgrade TS

* refactor: use console based logging

* Update .changeset/rotten-carrots-pump.md

"@changesets/action": patch
---
This patch implements the [`@octokit/plugin-throttling`](https://github.com/octokit/plugin-throttling.js) plugin and [wires
it up with the internal GitHub Octokit instance](https://github.com/actions/toolkit/tree/457303960f03375db6f033e214b9f90d79c3fe5c/packages/github#extending-the-octokit-instance).
This plugin is recommended by [the Octokit docs](://octokit.github.io/rest.js/v19#throttling) as it implements all the GitHub [best practices for integrators](https://docs.github.com/en/rest/guides/best-practices-for-integrators?apiVersion=2022-11-28).
This should help with `changesets/action` gitting spurious secondary rate limits and failing CI jobs, for which the only known workaround is to simply re-run the job.
