nektos/act#1607 added some support for $GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY

There is no documentation https://nektosact.com/?search=github_step_summary

Note that you can no longer use --env GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY=/dev/stdout -- that's fine, although it'd be nice if there was a warning (this is out of scope).

The best I've found to access step summaries is:

act -r
while true; do
  act_docker_pid=$(docker ps|perl -ne 'next unless s{\s.*"tail -f /dev/null".*act-.*}{};print'|tail -1)
  if [ -z "$act_docker_pid" ]; then
    break
  fi
  echo "$(docker ps|grep ^$act_docker_pid)::"
  docker exec $act_docker_pid cat /var/run/act/workflow/SUMMARY.md
  echo
  docker rm -f $act_docker_pid > /dev/null
done

act -r means that the container is kept around
GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY is generally defined as /var/run/act/workflow/SUMMARY.md

Note that each job is run in its own docker container so the files are independent.

(This isn't remotely ideal, but some documentation is better than nothing.)

It also should note that content written to $GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY will be destroyed at the beginning of the next step, so anyone running a multistep workflow in ACT should not rely on it as the output from any step other than the last will not be accessible.

nektos/act#2273

Issue Description:

I have observed that the content alignment within the body of the page is not properly configured. Specifically, the "Jump to Previous" and "Jump to Next" buttons seem to be colliding with the main text of the body, resulting in inconsistencies in the display and functionality of the page.

i would like to work on this issue.
