Subject: [PATCH] Add config file for the "stale" robot to clean up issues

With this, and the already activated github-app, the stale robot will
mark and subsequently close issues as specified in the config.

Currently we mark after 21 days, close after 7 more days, and ignore
issues with an assigned priority or milestone.
