Provision ELB Target Group

Description

This GitHub Action provisions an Elastic Load Balancer (ELB) target group. If a target group with the specified name already exists, the action will use the existing target group. Otherwise, it creates a new target group with the specified name in the specified VPC. The target group listens on a specified port for HTTP traffic, uses IP as target type, and uses HTTP health checks on the "/health" path every 30 seconds, expecting HTTP status codes in the range 200-299.
