Description

It would be nice if I could set some variable to true to have the opam environment added to path, so I don't need to opam exec everything. (It might be the case that running opam env >> $GITHUB_ENV is enough?)

Research direction

Start by reading issue #70 and the merged pull request #794, then inspect the action implementation and how it handles opam environments. Confirm whether the requested option is already covered; done means a GitHub Actions workflow can enable the option and use opam-installed binaries without invoking opam exec each time.
