Which issue(s) does this change fix?
None
Why is this change necessary?
To reduce the load on maintainers, we will close stale issues. This keeps lingering issues to a minimum and gives maintainers better view of the repo state.
How does it address the issue?
GHA will run daily, and look for stale issues. If a stale issue is found and does not have an exempt label, it will be marked "stale". Once the issue is in a stale state, it will be closed after a determined about of time (see config).
This will not closed except labels, issues with 1 or more reactions, and issues that have been recently commented on.
What side effects does this change have?
This will close issues and mark them stale but should be done only after a maintainer responses first (and removes one of the exempt labels set by default). If there are issues, the issues can always be reopen, making this not something we are locked into and can get around.
