working-directory not honoured

My team had to stop using gradle-build-action because working-directory not honoured. We've stopped using it because of this issue but I thought I'd let you know. cc @TristanSpeakEasy

Your best bet is to use the action as recommended in the README, to setup Gradle only. Then you can add a separate step to execute Gradle. The arguments parameter is deprecated as of v3 of the action.

In fact, you can switch to the new setup-gradle action, which will replace gradle-build-action.
