Overview of the Issue

The GitHub actions workflow does this:

But the export on TOPO is not propagated to the container. You can see this by looking in any of the recent actions @ https://github.com/vitessio/vitess/actions?query=workflow%3Alocal_example

Expand "local_example" on one for zk/consul, and you'll see:

++ ETCD_SERVER=localhost:2379
++ TOPOLOGY_FLAGS='--topo_implementation etcd2 --topo_global_server_address localhost:2379 --topo_global_root /vitess/global'

Reproduction Steps

Observed in CI, not user-facing.
