 Fixed performance regression for CPP users - A single-argument `act` function was missing causing the `paddle_strength` introduced in v0.10.0 to default to zero rather than one. As Gymnasium passed this variable to act, this was only an issue for users directly interacting with `ale_interface`.  For more details, see https://github.com/Farama-Foundation/Arcade-Learning-Environment/pull/595.
