Subject: [PATCH] Remove output from README

As this is an advanced usage it makes more sense to work to getting this included in the documentation instead.

-### Calling CodeQL Directly
-
-The `init` action makes the path to CodeQL available as the output `codeql-path`.
-
-With this you can access the `codeql` binary:
-
-<!-- this example is run via .github/workflows/codeql.yml -->
-```yaml
-- name: Initialize CodeQL
-  uses: github/codeql-action/init@v1
-  id: init
-  with:
-    languages: javascript
-
-- name: Print CodeQL Version
-  run: ${{steps.init.outputs.codeql-path}} version --format=json
-```
