Add GitHub Actions to automate project board management

[ajbozarth]

This is a follow up to #1855

After creating the new project board for tracking issues I found that some automation is not directly supported in the projects workflow feature. Adding opened issues to a default column and closed issue to the done column are both already working, but the automation to move active work to the In Progress column isn't.

In order to automate moving issues between columns based on specific actions (ie adding a label, opening a PR that would close an issue, etc) we have to use GitHub Actions. In the new action we would need to make API calls dealing with the project board, the API for this is not simple.

This issue is for discussing and tracking if and how we would like to add further automation.
