Improve the error message for missing action scan paths #11

@Metbcy

Description

@Metbcy

When a user sets the Action's path: input to a directory that does not exist in one checkout, the current failure is correct but can be more actionable.

Scope:

  • Improve the scan path not found message in entrypoint.sh with examples for monorepos and non-PR events.
  • Keep the failure loud; do not silently fall back to repository root.
  • Add or update a shell-level validation note in docs/src/github-action.md.

Definition of done:

  • bash -n entrypoint.sh passes.
  • The docs explain how to fix the error.
