Action fails to properly install Ballerina for Windows builds

[Xenowa]

Description: The setup-ballerina action works as expected when a numeric version is provided in the workflow file as version: '2201.8.6', however it fails when version:latest is provided.

Potential Fix:

Change the steps.configure-version.outputs.version to inputs.version

Suggested Labels: Bug

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a repository with a workflow file containing setup-ballerina action for Windows.

   
   name: Test Setup Ballerina Action

on: push:

jobs: windows_build: name: Build runs-on: windows-latest concurrency: group: ${{ github.head_ref }}-windows cancel-in-progress: true

steps:
  - name: Checkout Repository
    uses: actions/checkout@v3

  - name: Set up JDK 17
    uses: actions/setup-java@v3
    with:
      distribution: 'temurin'
      java-version: '17.0.7'

  - name: Set Up Ballerina
    uses: ballerina-platform/setup-ballerina@v1.1.0
    with:
      version: latest

2. Trigger workflow by pushing changes to repository

Here is the build stacktrace:
