Fix local composite action context data

[ChristopherHX]

Action.Id is the correct parent step id, by using ExecutionContext.Id all post steps of Actions are executed with the contextdata of a non direct parent composite action within nested local composite actions.

I open this PR, because issue 2009 has not received any bug fix and I have mentioned this fix in #2009 (comment), since almost a year.

Fixes #2009

• The first post step executes just fine
• The second steps context should only contain depth3
• The third steps context should only contain depth4
• The fourth steps context should be empty

Man this is such a major bug and nobody at github seems to give any sh*t about it. I think its time to complain on hacker news so we get someone to ping internally.

[ChristopherHX]

Yeah seems like the actions/runner team are not even recognizing this as a bug. The last time I opened a PR to this repository, it was an issue including comments which suggested that they have an interest in fixing the bug (still took 1/4 year for them to accept it)

Otherwise these issues would get a "keep" / "ready for dev" label.

One bug issue from me got implemented within two weeks after reporting, that must have been a lot of luck.

Due to this problem beeing very complex we have to hope they revisit it someday. Self-hosted runner users can apply my patch, while it is useless for GitHub Hosted Runner users, which is sad.

For example we are affected, when we want private composite actions from public repos.

If everything is private we can allow access to the private repos and use the repo@ver syntax to avoid hitting this horrible bug

Bump. Pleeeease merge this, such a simple fix to an old yet still painful issue.
