0.2.48

Feature description

Imagine being able to run act -W path/to/workflow --config path/to/.actrs.

I want automated tests to be run on custom GitHub actions I write for my organisation. These actions aren't complex enough to warrant their own repository and so are all put into one repo. They mostly require unique arguments when testing with act, hence the need to have multiple locations for the .actrc file.
