refactor(get-images-from-files): to return json array (#31)
Working with a proper JSON array is way better than the comma separated list, as the JSON array can be directly fed into subsequent GitHub actions, without re-formatting.

Changes don't need to be treated as breaking, as there is no productive consumer yet.

Get Images From Files Action

A reusable Gitea Action that extracts Docker image references from selected files in a repository. Duplicate refs are deduplicated.

Note: Only fully-qualified refs (with registry, e.g. docker.io/library/alpine:latest, gcr.io/distroless/static:nonroot@sha256:...) are included; short refs like alpine:latest are omitted as their use is discouraged.

Supported file formats

Format How images are extracted
Dockerfile FROM lines; the image ref is the last token (handles FROM --platform=... <image>).
Kubernetes manifests Lines with image: (e.g. under containers / initContainers); the value is taken as the image ref.
Docker Compose / Compose Same as Kubernetes: image: key under services.
Helmfile values Pairs of repository and tag (both required) at the same indent; ref is repository:tag. A lone tag without repository is skipped.

Other files are supported if they use one of these patterns (e.g. image: or FROM).
