Re: Github Actions for issues asking for a release

Just need to try and make the bot smart enough to catch the requests vs something legit issue. I like the idea on how you have a threshold count.

Bot should also leave a good generic message as well before closing. Something about how we are working in various repos and do not provide set in stone ETAs. Also to monitor NPM for releases or mailing list to track vote threads.

Since the bot will only close and not lock threads, it give the user the ability to submit a reply to the thread if the bot closed inaccurately. Not sure if the bot should mention that though.

We already got 9 threads about Camera plugin 4.2.0 release not on NPM because it exists in git.
