[CI] allow for manual triggered jobs to accept inputs

Utilizing the GitHub `workflow_dispatch`, we can trigger
a job with a specific inputs.

By default, we run from this repo:
https://github.com/opensearch-project/opensearch-dashboards-functional-test

This workflow uses the target branch of the PR to pull down
from the FTRepo and run the tests from that specific branch.

For example, PRs against `main` will pull down `main` from
the FTRepo.

The problem occurs when new functionality is opened or a bug is
fixed and, per industry standard, we want to see tests added
to ensure functionality, stability, and raise the bar.

However, the cypress tests PR into the FTRepo depends on the new code
to be merged for the CI within the FTRepo to work. So we have a
stalemate that usually slows down PR review time.

Here, a manual run can be triggered by a maintainer. It will utilize
the source branch from the PR if provided.
