Deprecation error

[ghost]

Describe the bug

Here's my yml:

name: WordPress Coding Standards checks

on: push

jobs:
  phpcs:
      name: WPCS
      runs-on: ubuntu-latest
      steps:
        - uses: actions/checkout@v2
        - name: WPCS check
          uses: 10up/wpcs-action@stable

This action is giving error:
<error line="1" column="1" severity="error" message="An error occurred during processing; checking has been aborted. The error message was: trim(): Passing null to parameter #1 ($string) of type string is deprecated in /github/home/wpcs/WordPress/Sniffs/WP/I18nSniff.php on line 194" source="Internal.Exception"/>

I tried running the sniffer using older versions of PHP (7.2 and 7.4) with no luck. shivammathur/setup-php@v2 was used to switch PHP version in yml file.

The sniffer was working fine about 2-3 months ago.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Add workflow config in .yml file
2. Push test changes
3. Error!
