I'm going to be testing out a tool to automatically close Github issues

As I've been trying to wrangle our product backlog I've found that the sheer number of open issues on our core repos (vanilla, internal, addons) just make that task practically impossible. Those repos just have too many issues to effectively manage, and as a result those repos don't have issues scheduled at all unless they are specifically tagged to a release.

I'm going to start trying out an automated culling tool that will close issues that have had no activity for a specified period of time. To start with we'll try 1 year. When issues are stale the tool will apply our Status: Won't Fix label and comment on the issue. If you notice such a comment you can comment on or update the issue and it will be skipped; otherwise, it will be closed.

Closed issues are still around and will still show up in suggested searches just like other closed issues.

I'll be enabling the bot this week and we'll see how it goes. Hopefully, it doesn't create too much spam.
