It seems the Makefile reads and exports GITHUB_TOKEN during build, which is alarming. Can we make that optional and default off?

Makefile is not mentioned as recommended installation method, so I assume it's used only to release new versions by act dev.
You can build act with go build -ldflags "-X main.version=master" main.go or follow the already described installation options.
