Closes #2203
Introduces a workflow to clean up potentially stale issues / bugs raised where we need author input to progress.
This workflow requires two new labels
need-author-input
andstale
So the sequence of actions would be this:
need-author-input
labelneed-author-input
label has been assigned to the issue, the countdown (of 14 days in this case) begins, after 14 days the label stale is assigned to the issue and a generated warning is commented by the github bot that the issue will close in 7 days
