Removed the checklist item for ensuring CI is passing. We don't really have CI as of yet and it's confusing to list that requirement. If we do add CI, we'll make it required instead of adding it to the template checklist.
Adds clarification around our expectations for contributions and
how contributions will be handled when they don't meet our requirements.
Updates template to lean into our contribution guidelines.
Cleans up duplicate wording around our contribution guidelines.
Updated the days before closing stale PRs from 180 to 365. Due to internal priorities we need to allow more time for PR reviews.
Based on my reading, we need to increase `days-before-close` to ensure that any PR marked with the `stale` label currently benefits from the extension.
Once we are caught up on the backlog, we can revisit this setting.
