Attempting to run the global-ci workflow from a tackle2-ui PR (konveyor/tackle2-ui#1781), I encountered a pretty big issue. The PR description is blindly copied to a shell command. PR descriptions can contain a lot of markdown formatting. In this case, I initially had a typo with two backticks next to each other.

This is causing the workflow to crash:
https://github.com/konveyor/tackle2-ui/actions/runs/8304215558/job/22729664960#step:2:21

Even after fixing the typo, any text inside a backtick pair, which is useful formatting for a package name, that text will run as a command.

Please update the workflow to at least quote escape the PR body text before parsing it.

  - Pass the github event PR description via a step env variable
    to avoid any string interpolation problems.

  - Report the calculated test ref (`GOLANG_TESTS_REF` and `UI_TESTS_REF`)
    via step summary so it is easy to see in the action summary page.

  - Bump `actions/checkout` to `@v4` to fix its deprecated warning.

  - Drop `pathfinder-image` input from the `install-tackle` action since
    that input has been removed.

  - Bump `actions/checkout` to `@v4` to fix its deprecated warning.
