Summary
This PR adds support for two new inputs to the release-please GitHub Action:

versioning-strategy Allows users to specify the versioning strategy to use for releases (e.g., default, always-bump-minor, etc.).
release-as: Allows users to specify the exact version to release as (e.g., 2.0.0).

Usage Example

- uses: googleapis/release-please-action@v4
  with:
    token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
    release-type: node
    versioning-strategy: always-bump-minor
    release-as: 2.0.0

Motivation
These options provide more flexibility and control over how versions are determined and released, addressing use cases where the default behavior is not sufficient.

Fixed the main CI issue. We need to pass a fetch implementation.
