Description

## Describe the Change Request

The [github-action-matrix-outputs-read](https://github.com/cloudposse/github-action-matrix-outputs-read/tree/main) action uses [dcarbone/install-jq-action@v2.1.0](https://github.com/cloudposse/github-action-matrix-outputs-read/blob/main/action.yml#L19C13-L19C46) and set the `jq` version to `1.6`.

The currently available jq version on (e.g.) homebrew is `1.7`.
`1.7` is also the [default](https://github.com/dcarbone/install-jq-action/blob/main/action.yaml#L13) for the `dcarbone/install-jq-action` action.
`jq` released version `1.7` in Sept 2023, over a year ago.

Version 1.7 is also pre-installed on our local GH runners and clashes with the `1.6` that this action is trying to install.

## Proposed Change

Please consider changing the jq version to `1.7`

## Use Case

We plan to use the [github-action-matrix-outputs-read](https://github.com/cloudposse/github-action-matrix-outputs-read) action in our CI pipeline that runs on local / self-managed runners. Those runners have jq 1.7 already installed and the `dcarbone/install-jq-action` action clashes / fails when trying to install version `1.6`

## Describe Ideal Solution

The ideal solution would use `1.7` or `1.7.1` which is the currently released version of `jq`
