INFO    ️📣 A newer version of 'act' is available - consider ugrading to 0.2.44.

Command used with act

./dist/local/act --verbose --rm --rebuild --pull=false -C ./pkg/runner/testdata/ -W ./basic/push.yml

Describe issue

Since https://github.com/nektos/act/pull/1745 the binding of the docker socket fails (at least in some cases).
We did saw this on a linux host as well as on a host running in WSL2 on windows (with docker installed inside WSL).

Binds:[unix:///var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock]

Hmm, this is the bug... docker -v unix:///var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock is invalid mount syntax.
