Use env.RUNNER_ENVIRONMENT to check runner type

[jjacobelli]

Instead of checking if the runner name contains linux-, we now check the value of env.RUNNER_ENVIRONMENT. This value should be github-hosted for GitHub runners and self-hosted for RAPIDS runners.

Test pipeline: https://github.com/rapidsai/devcontainers/actions/runs/6639045230?pr=166

@jjacobelli it doesn't look like github-hosted runners set the env.RUNNER_ENVIRONMENT variable.

Is this something we only do in our self-hosted runners, or did something about the github-hosted runners change? I thought the env context propagates to actions, but I could also be mistaken.

Hey @trxcllnt, I just checked a workflow running on our runners and the variable is still defined:

That's not something we manually set on our side so maybe GH changed something on their runners?

[trxcllnt]

Ok, I'll change the checks to if: ${{ env.RUNNER_ENVIRONMENT == 'self-hosted' }}

@jjacobelli It doesn't seem like env.RUNNER_ENVIRONMENT is defined in our runners. I even made sure to pass it in from the calling workflow, just in case something changed like actions don't inherit the workflow environment. What am I doing wrong?
