### Bug description

Thanks for the amazing work on quarto, it's been a fantastic resource for which we keep discovering new applications!

First, apologies if this is not actually the best repository to report issues with quarto documentation, but this is where the link "Report an Issue with this page" points on your documentation, https://quarto.org/docs/publishing/github-pages.html, so I figured I'd start here.  Maybe those docs can point to a different issue tracker if that's preferred?

On that page, under [publish action](https://quarto.org/docs/publishing/github-pages.html#publish-action) the docs read:

> before configuring the publishing action, it’s important that you run quarto publish gh-pages locally, once. This will create the `_publish.yml` configuration required by the subsequent invocations of the GitHub Action. To do this, run the following from within your project:

I think this should be `publish.yml` without an underscore.  The rest of the docs refer to it with no underscore.  More importantly, I and colleagues frequently see a quarto error 

```
ERROR: No _publish.yml file available (_publish.yml specifying a destination required for non-interactive publish)
```

when trying to publish with a GitHub Action.   This is a confusing error, because the only mention of a `_publish.yml` file (with underscore) is the one above, which I am pretty sure is not what the error `ERROR: No _publish.yml ` is referring to. It sounds like this is a top-level config file, similar to `_quarto.yml`, but I'm not sure because I cannot find documentation describing it. It is a bit of a weird error, because it is very explicit in saying that such a file is required for non-interactive publication and yet github repositories configured to do non-interactive publishing don't have  such a file, so I am worried that the error message is both spurious and asserting a requirement that is (no longer?) a requirement?  I believe this is related to https://github.com/quarto-dev/quarto-actions/issues/50.  

Thanks for considering!
