1. build: shorten path used in tarball build workflow …

   Shorten the path to the workspace for the GitHub Actions `build-tarball`
   workflow to avoid `execvp: printf: Argument list too long` errors from
   `make`.
   
   GitHub currently runs workflows in a `/home/runner/work/my-repo/my-repo`
   directory where `my-repo` is the repository name and is repeated twice
   (the second is from the git checkout). Some of the command lines in the
   Node.js build, e.g. the `ar` command to create static libraries, pass
   several fully qualified paths to filenames so the workflow directory is
   repeat many times. The most recent V8 update added more files to the
   command and has now tipped the command line length over the maximum
   allowed when using forks of the `node` repository with a longer name
   (e.g. `node-auto-test` and the private fork used to prepare security
   releases).
   
   Use GitHub's `RUNNER_TEMP` environment variable to extract the source
   tarball into the temporary directory on the GitHub runner. This is
   currently `/home/runner/work/_temp` and is not dependent on the name
   of the repository.
