[Feature Request] Add `name`, `version`, `arch` and any other useful metadata as outputs of `rockcraft-pack-action`
Metadata
Current evaluation
Request to expose rock name, version, architecture, and metadata as outputs in the rockcraft-pack-action. Currently only outputs the filename. Untriaged, inactive for over two years, and awaiting assignment.
Suggested action: close stale
Reason: This feature request has been completely inactive for over 2.5 years with zero comments or maintainer engagement. Given the extended period without traction and the rapid evolution of CI/CD tooling, it is highly likely superseded by newer versions of the action or abandoned, making it no longer applicable to current workflows.

Issue body
The `rockcraft-pack-action` provides an output `rock` (the filename of the rock produced). This is great for CI as reduces the boilerplate code needed to consume the output.
For the same reason, it would be great if this action also provided data like `name`, `version`, and probably others. This would make it really easy to chain a `rockcraft-pack` call with a `skopeo copy`, etc. A use can currently inspect the `rockcraft.yaml` file to get this information, but it feels more natural and convenient to be provided these directly from `rockcraft-pack-action`
