              HOLD THE JUMP BUTTON TO JUMP HIGHER
I'm working on a 2D game and I want to give my player a Mario styled jumped, where if the user held the jump button longer the player would jump higher and if they held/tap the jump button shorter the player would jump shorter.
 using UnityEngine;
 using UnityEngine.Events;
 
 public class CharacterController2D : MonoBehaviour
 {
     [SerializeField] private float m_JumpForce = 400f;                            // Amount of force added when the player jumps.
     [Range(0, 1)] [SerializeField] private float m_CrouchSpeed = .36f;            // Amount of maxSpeed applied to crouching movement. 1 = 100%
     [Range(0, .3f)] [SerializeField] private float m_MovementSmoothing = .05f;    // How much to smooth out the movement
     [SerializeField] private bool m_AirControl = false;                            // Whether or not a player can steer while jumping;
     [SerializeField] private LayerMask m_WhatIsGround;                            // A mask determining what is ground to the character
     [SerializeField] private Transform m_GroundCheck;                            // A position marking where to check if the player is grounded.
     [SerializeField] private Transform m_CeilingCheck;                            // A position marking where to check for ceilings
     [SerializeField] private Collider2D m_CrouchDisableCollider;                // A collider that will be disabled when crouching
 
     const float k_GroundedRadius = .2f; // Radius of the overlap circle to determine if grounded
     private bool m_Grounded;            // Whether or not the player is grounded.
     const float k_CeilingRadius = .2f; // Radius of the overlap circle to determine if the player can stand up
     private Rigidbody2D m_Rigidbody2D;
     private bool m_FacingRight = true;  // For determining which way the player is currently facing.
     private Vector3 m_Velocity = Vector3.zero;
