Description
It would be nice to have an input to override the commit message used by action/manage-by-issue, so the generated commit can follow a project's commit conventions (e.g. Conventional Commits).
example:
- uses: mitchellh/vouch/action/manage-by-issue@v1
with:
commit-message: "chore(vouch): update VOUCHED contributors"
I tried a workaround using action/setup-vouch and calling the vouch command directly, but ran into an escaping bug in the wrapper that prevents passing a multi-word commit message: #94

Research direction
Start by inspecting action/manage-by-issue and the related action/setup-vouch workaround described in issue #94. Trace how the commit message is passed to the generated commit, then verify that the optional input supports project-specific messages, including multi-word values and the example Conventional Commit format.
