This allows specifying either a commit or a branch in the same
field, allowing simplifying both the workflow inputs, and
the expressions for passing commit/branch to both
dawidd6/action-download-artifact and actions/checkout.
This new option is available since
https://github.com/dawidd6/action-download-artifact/pull/329.
As the branch field has a default value "master", this default
not only applies when the dialog box for starting the manual
workflow is presented. But even if the prefilled branch field
is cleared, the default value also gets substituted when submitting.
In this case, when the commit and branch fields are mutually
exclusive, we can't easily have a default. Instead change the
uses of the fields, ignoring the branch field if the commit field
is filled.
If the dawidd6/action-download-artifact action would support
specifying either a commit or a branch in the same field, like
actions/checkout does, we wouldn't need this distinction at all;
this request is tracked upstream at
https://github.com/dawidd6/action-download-artifact/issues/242.
