https://github.com/python/bedevere/pull/22 is the current implementation of
the check. All it does is see if the PR has a path that contains a news
file. It can also easily be changed to also support some "no news" label if
people want it to.

The entire reason I want to have this check is I don't want or have to ask
another PR submitter to include a draft of a news item. It's much easier to
edit an existing news entry through the web UI than either ask for it and
deal with the turnaround time to get the PR submitter to add it.
