Offhand, I think this is what I'd want:

Var	Value
GITHUB_ACTION_PATH	= set if there's an action running
GITHUB_ACTION_REF	`''`
GITHUB_ACTION_REPOSITORY	`''`
GITHUB_BASE_REF	`''`
GITHUB_HEAD_REF	`''`
GITHUB_JOB	= parse from workflow (it's the active child of the top level `jobs`)
GITHUB_REPOSITORY_OWNER	= guess from `origin`
GITHUB_RETENTION_DAYS	`0`
RUNNER_PERFLOG	`/dev/null`
RUNNER_TRACKING_ID
RUNNER_WORKSPACE	= GITHUB_WORKSPACE

fixes #603

Notes:

USER/RUNNER_USER might be more a matter of the image -- @catthehacker is going to fix this in their images
- It's possible to write some hacky code to use whoami (or echo $USER) to calculate and fill in a RUNNER_USER, but it's unclear whether that's the right thing to do in general, and, again, it's hacky.
GITHUB_PATH is #566
