feat: define github issue labels as code

[NuclearRedeye]

Current WIP to define a set of core issue labels and have each change automatically update the labels in a defined list of repos.

Just some unasked-for feedback, but I'd like to see infrastructure/configuration management type code centralised. Preferably in builder.

I absolutely understand the impulse to just write something to get the job done quickly, but that impulse, and the code it generates, spread across time and developers, leads to configuration drift and a sort of diffuse mountain of unmaintained code that is easy to ignore and perpetuates more of the same.

Github configuration can be done through Terraform and Builder uses Terraform. Builder gets less attention because configuration management is being pushed into these scripts, probably because Builder is written in Python and has become unapproachable and a little gnarly over the years. Builder's friendliness can be improved.

Other Github configuration that would be good to capture would be teams and team permissions.

Absolutely. This is just a draft that I threw up to stash the code for safe keeping and I don't have any intention of merging it.

When I come around to looking at this again, I'll take a look.

I thought similar as I quickly knocked this up and actually took a look at what could be done with the GitHub API. It's quite comprehensive.
