Get required workflow usage

Gets the number of billable minutes used by a specific required workflow during the current billing cycle.

Billable minutes only apply to required workflows running in private repositories that use GitHub-hosted runners. Usage is listed for each GitHub-hosted runner operating system in milliseconds.
