Updating @action/core, adding logic for processing the DOTNET_INSTALL_DIR environment variable.

In the scope of this release such changes were made:

1. The logic for processing the DOTNET_INSTALL_DIR environment variable was added to support relative paths and paths containing ~ #332
2. The version of @actions/core was bumped to 1.10.0 #331

Enable DOTNET_INSTALL_DIR environment variable

In scope of this release the DOTNET_INSTALL_DIR environment variable was enabled to add the ability to change the installation directory for .NET SDK #329. The DOTNET_INSTALL_DIR can be helpful when access to the default installation directory, for instance, on self-hosted runners, is denied.

Example of usage:

build:
  runs-on: self-hosted
  env:
    DOTNET_INSTALL_DIR: "path/to/directory"
  steps:
    - uses: actions/setup-dotnet@v3
      with:
        dotnet-version: '3.1.x'

v3.0.0

This major release includes the following changes:

• #219 New input dotnet-quality was added in #315:

    - uses: actions/setup-dotnet@v3
      with:
        dotnet-version: '6.0.x'
        dotnet-quality: 'preview'
    - run: dotnet build <my project>

More in detail here.

• #241 The output variable dotnet-version which contains the installed by the action SDK version was added in #324:

    - uses: actions/setup-dotnet@v3
      id: cp310
      with:
        dotnet-version: '3.1.422'
    - run: echo '${{ steps.cp310.outputs.dotnet-version }}' # outputs 3.1.422

More in detail here.

• The dotnet-version syntax was updated and now it allows to specify the prerelease version without using include-prerelease input. The include-prerelease input was cut out:

    - uses: actions/setup-dotnet@v3
      with:
        dotnet-version: '5.0.0-preview.6'

More in detail here.

• #251 The problem with out of support .NET version warnings was solved in #315.
