rate limit for github api has been reached

[guettli]

What steps did you take and what happened:

I tried to use CAPIO and I get this condition:

resource: coreproviders 
name: cluster-api
Condition ProviderInstalled=False ComponentsFetchError "failed to read \"\" from the repository for provider \"cluster-api\": failed to get GitHub release v1.6.0: rate limit for github api has been reached. Please wait one hour or get a personal API token and assign it to the GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable"

I added the env var GITHUB_TOKEN to the capio deployment, but this seems to be ignored.

There are some docs about github-token here, but they describe only how to provide the token for the infra-provider.

Please tell me (and in the README) how to provide the github-token to capio.

Thank you very much.

Github token can be added to the provider secret, it's documented here https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/cluster-api-operator/tree/main/docs#installing-azure-infrastructure-provider. I guess we need to highlight it better.
