pr-review from forked repo (#296)

This change should make it possible to show pr-preview by PR from the forked repo, and set the `paths` parameters to `plugins.yaml` so it only can be triggered when this file changes.
The pull_request_target replace pull_request to use the correct
permission and to avoid malicious code injection to CI.
