Why:

Closes: #33925

What's being changed (if available, include any code snippets, screenshots, or gifs):

Both of the following links make reference to only being able to authenticate to GitHub packages using a PAT but that's misleading, and even contradicted on the same page by references to using GITHUB_SECRET in GitHub actions.
https://docs.github.com/en/packages/learn-github-packages/publishing-a-package
https://docs.github.com/en/packages/working-with-a-github-packages-registry/working-with-the-container-registry#authenticating-to-the-container-registry

Check off the following:
