[Repo]: Error in Pull Request Comments Job in GitHub Actions CI for New Contributors

[AhmedGrati]

Description

For the first contributors, when they open a pull request, the job PullRequestComments fails in the action actions/first-interaction@v1.
Here are the logs of the error:

internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:1216
      throw new ERR_REQUIRE_ESM(filename, parentPath, packageJsonPath);
      ^

Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: Must use import to load ES Module: /node_modules/@octokit/graphql/index.js
require() of ES modules is not supported.
require() of /node_modules/@octokit/graphql/index.js from /node_modules/@actions/github/lib/github.js is an ES module file as it is a .js file whose nearest parent package.json contains "type": "module" which defines all .js files in that package scope as ES modules.
Instead rename index.js to end in .cjs, change the requiring code to use import(), or remove "type": "module" from /node_modules/@octokit/graphql/package.json.
