feat: add base_branch input to specify source branch for new Claude branches (#72)

* feat: add base_branch input to specify source branch for new Claude branches

- Add base_branch input parameter to action.yml allowing users to specify which branch to use as source
- Update setupBranch function to accept and use the base branch parameter  
- Defaults to repository default branch if no base branch is specified
- Addresses issue #62 for better branch control

* perf: optimize setupBranch to avoid unnecessary default branch fetch

Only fetch repository default branch when actually needed:
- Skip initial fetch when baseBranch is provided
- Fetch default branch at end only for return value and GitHub Actions output
- Eliminates unnecessary API call when users specify base branch

* fix: properly handle base branch throughout the action workflow

- Fix TypeScript error where defaultBranch was used before being assigned
- Replace DEFAULT_BRANCH with BASE_BRANCH in subsequent workflow steps
- Update PR creation and branch comparison to use the actual base branch
- Ensure custom base_branch input is respected in all operations

* refactor: move BASE_BRANCH env reading into parseGitHubContext

- Move BASE_BRANCH environment variable reading into parseGitHubContext for consistency
- Update setupBranch to use context.inputs.baseBranch instead of process.env
- Fix test descriptions to correctly reference BASE_BRANCH instead of DEFAULT_BRANCH
- Update test environment setup to use BASE_BRANCH
