Hi,

I would like to use this action to build the hdf5 rust crate against a msys2 package for HDF5.

Things I would like to request for this github action:

  • I want to use the default shell, and extend the PATH environment variable with the bin folder in the msys2 installation. Is this possible to add to this action? So not using the msys2 shell, but having the PATH environment variable extended by the setup-msys2 action?
  • An exported variable with the location of the msys2 installation. For now, I must manually specify a path to the installation to find HDF5. Specifically, I need to set HDF5_DIR=D:\a\_temp\msys64\mingw64, for the D:\a\_temp\msys64\mingw64 part I would like to be able to use some sort of variable.
