Switch to OIDC Federation Service instead of GitHub App (#1708)
Currently, the [Gardener GitHub-Actions App](https://github.com/apps/gardener-github-actions)
is used to provide more privileged access than available via the default `GITHUB_TOKEN`, for
example to circumvent branch protection rules (GitHub Apps can be configured as bypassers) or
cross repository privileges. To prevent sharing the GitHub App secret with each and every
repository/workflow which requires usage of it, the
[GitHub OIDC Federation Service](https://github.com/gardener/github-oidc-federation) has been
developed. In essence, it holds the credentials for a central GitHub App and creates short-lived
access tokens with a configured scope based on a centrally configured OIDC configuration. See
