Github Actions: copdips/get-azure-keyvault-secrets-action

Recently, I began a new project that requires migrating some process from Azure Pipelines to Github Actions. One of the tasks involves retrieving secrets from Azure Key Vault.

In Azure Pipelines, we have an official task called AzureKeyVault@2 designed for this purpose. However, its official counterpart in Github Actions, Azure/get-keyvault-secrets@v1, has been deprecated. The recommended alternative is Azure CLI. While Azure CLI is a suitable option, it operates in a bash shell without multithreading. If numerous secrets need to be fetched, this can be time-consuming.
