Previously, the flatpak-builder action used hardcoded directories for the build output, local repository, and build state. This change introduces new input parameters to make these directories configurable: - 'build-dir': Specifies the directory for the application build output. - 'repo-name': Specifies the directory for the flatpak repository. - 'state-dir': Specifies the directory to store the build cache. This flexibility is crucial for environments like GitHub Actions, where default working directories might have limited space. By allowing users to specify paths, they can leverage volume mountpoints (e.g., /mnt) that offer more disk space, preventing "running out of space" errors during the build process.

An example of use would be: jobs:
flatpak:
name: "Flatpak"
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
container:
image: ghcr.io/flathub-infra/flatpak-github-actions:gnome-48
options: --privileged
volumes:
- /mnt/flatpak_workflow:/mnt/flatpak_workflow
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v4
- uses: flatpak/flatpak-github-actions/flatpak-builder@v6
with:
bundle: palette.flatpak
manifest-path: org.gnome.zbrown.Palette.yml
cache-key: flatpak-builder-${{ github.sha }}
build-dir: /mnt/flatpak_workflow/build-dir
repo-name: /mnt/flatpak_workflow/repo
state-dir: /mnt/flatpak_workflow/.flatpak-builder |

When i tested your patch at bilelmoussaoui/ashpd#322 i get the same limited space error (see https://github.com/bilelmoussaoui/ashpd/actions/runs/20575989270), any clues? |

You forgot to mount a host volume, should be like this: The point of this PR was to allow using the hosts |
