Changeset 54108 for trunk/.github/workflows/test-old-branches.yml

Message:

Build/Test Tools: Use the default GITHUB_TOKEN instead of a personal access token.

Previously, it was not possible to use the default GITHUB_TOKEN token to create new workflow runs in an effort to prevent accidental recursive workflows.

This has changed, and the workflow_dispatch is now one of two exceptions to this rule. Using GITHUB_TOKEN is preferred whenever possible to avoid the need for a PAT (personal access token), which expires (when created using the recommended security best practices), and is tied to an individual user.

See ​https://github.blog/changelog/2022-09-08-github-actions-use-github_token-with-workflow_dispatch-and-repository_dispatch/.

See #55652.
