Use pull_request not pull_request_target in GitHub Actions. (#139)
`pull_request` runs on the merge commit between the opened PR and the
target branch where the PR is to be merged — `master` in this case. This
is desirable because that way the new changes get linted and tested.
The existing `pull_request_target` specifier causes lint and test to run
_on the target branch itself_ (i.e. `master` in this case). That way the
new code in the PR doesn't get linted and tested at all. This can also
lead to security vulnerabilities, as described in the GitHub docs:
