Additional files

[martijngastkemper]

I use wordpos in an action. It's currently inpossible to publish that package because it has additional files in dist:

And only dist/index.js is added to the Automatic compilation commit. After looking into the code I think it's not possible to add the whole dist folder with your package. But correct me if I'm working.

Hi @JasonEtco, would it be possible to incorporate this feature? (There are already open PRs #18 and #24 which have possible implementations of this.)

In addition to not supporting actions that need additional files, this also doesn't allow including licenses, which seems like bad OSS etiquette at a minimum and violating license agreements with a stricter stance. This comment also points out that the marketplace page for older versions end up with blank descriptions because there is no README.

I also like this comment's suggestion of using the files keyword on the package.json spec which is intended to allow for specifying exactly this kind of thing.
