Add 'Recent' tab to Issues

Description

Finding an issue can be difficult. Often, I am looking for an issue that I have interacted with within the past few days.

Proposal

Add a tab 'Recent' Tab to Issues which will display the most recent issues you have interacted with. Something like this:

@smcgivern @mydigitalself @DouweM : I like the concept of recent access more than bookmarking (issues I starred), since there's less management. What do you think, in light of personal issue management that we've chatted several times about already.

Don't necessarily like the UI design though, since "Recent" is a different from "Open/Closed". But I do like the use case.

If by 'interacted with', we mean 'left a comment or emoji award on', then I think this would be very useful! Like @victorwu, I'm not sure this should be a tab: maybe a filter in the filter bar?

I love the idea, I do this it's a separate concern from bookmarking/starring issues for my own benefit though and I'd like to see both.

changed milestone to %Next 3-6 months in gitlab-foss

added feature proposal in GitLab FOSS label

This is exactly what I had in mind. As each release cycle starts and ends, I find that I am looking / interacting with the same issues a lot. I don't necessarily want to bookmark them because soon they will be implemented/closed and I will have moved on. Bookmarking is a separate use case in my mind. Those are items I will probably want to refer back to months later.

I can see where you are coming from on that @victorwu. The filter solution @smcgivern suggested could do the trick

How recent should we say recent is? A week? That would probably work for me.
