[core-workflow] GitHub Integration

[Anish Shah]

Hello everyone,

as you all know, I was working on integrating GitHub into b.p.o under GSoC.
This email is a summary of my work.

Github PRs will be presented in a similar manner as mercurial repos, the
preview is available here
<https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AnishShah/GSoC/master/new.png>.

There will be three ways of linking GitHub PR to an issue on b.p.o

*1. Manually submit a link to GitHub PR on b.p.o*: Paste the link to the
new pull request in the newly-added field "GitHub PR" on issue page. Here
<https://github.com/AnishShah/GSoC/raw/master/manual.png> is how the new
field looks like.

*2. Automatically link GitHub PR using keywords*: If keywords like "fixes"
followed by issue number are used in PR title/body, then it is
automatically linked to that issue on b.p.o. For example, "fixes bpo123"
will link PR to issue 123 on http://bugs.python.org

*3. Auto conversion of a patch file to GitHub PR*: Submit a patch file like
same old way and it will be converted to a GitHub PR automatically.

The detailed description of all the patches I've submitted during my GSoC
can be viewed here

Thank you, everyone. It was great to work on this project.
