[RFC]: add workflow to post comment on PRs accidentally closing tracking issues #52

@Planeshifter

Description

@Planeshifter

This RFC proposes adding a new workflow and script that would check all open PRs for whether they have "Resolves/Closes/Fixes " in them, where the referenced issue corresponds to a tracking issue (as identified via label "Tracking Issue"). In such cases, we almost always don't want to have GItHub auto-close the tracking issue, with the exception being when the last sub-issue of the tracking issue has been completed.

To help contributors double-check their PR comment bodies, the script will leave a comment by the @stdlib-bot instructing them to double-check whether they accidentally included language to close a tracking issue, when instead they should have used "Progresses " or "Ref: ".
