feat: trigger external repo #52

Closed KyleTryon closed 1 year ago

KyleTryon commented 1 year ago

Aims to resolve #14 by enabling the action to trigger additional CircleCI projects beyond the current repository.

This is useful, for instance, if you have a remote repository set to build on the latest version of a docker image, you can use this action in the repo which builds the docker image, to test it with the remote repository immediately.
