github_actions_secret page does not contain any documentation on how to produce the encrypted_value.

There are two alternatives on how to create encrypted_value from the plaintext value:

1. One using TF_LOG=debug terraform apply to observe what "encrypted_secret" value is sent as JSON in the GitHub API call, as @jcudit outlined in a PR Added encrypted_value to Actions + Organizations's secrets #807 comment, although this is missing instructions necessary to avoid storing the plaintext_secret in a remote backend.
2. Make an API call to https://api.github.com/repos/ORG/REPO/actions/secrets/public-key and write a helper script using the example code in GitHub reference for "Create or update a repository secret".

Both of these are too cumbersome in my opinion.

But at the very least, a way to do this should be documented on github_actions_secret documentation.
