Description
Is it not possible to include the **flags** into the Github Action like below?
```
- name: Validate
uses: gitleaks/gitleaks-action@v2
with:
args: "--config=custom_path/.gitleaks.toml --log-opts=main"
```
Nothing happens with the above code. However, if I directly run the `gitleaks detect` with the above **flags** it works.
`gitleaks detect --verbose --config=custom_path/.gitleaks.toml --log-opts=main`
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with the gitleaks/gitleaks-action@v2 entry point and trace how the with.args value is handled. Compare the action workflow using --config and --log-opts with the direct gitleaks detect command, then verify that the supplied flags affect the action's scan as expected.
