Add GitHub Actions (CI) to Graphics-Toolkit-Color Perl module

Earlier we saw how to use CPAN::Digger to find a Perl project to contribute to. This time we used CPAN::Digger and found the Graphics-Toolkit-Color project to which we added a GitHub Actions configuration file to enable Continuous Integration (CI) executing the tests of the module on every push.

I created a fork of the GitHub repository and in a branch I added the following file to be ./github/workflows/ci.yml. (copied from the try-github-actions repository.

Once the changes were pushed out the instructions started to run on the servers of GitHub.

When I saw the tests passed I could send the Pull-Request.
