build: filter issues & PRs to auto close by matching on stalled label

Rodrigo Muino Tomonari requested to merge github/fork/phillipj/filter-issues-to-close into master

The auto closing of issues & PRs labelled with stalled doesn't seem to be working as expected. The GitHub Action UI gives the impression the stale action tries to execute more operations than it is allowed to do.

Previously there was no filtering on issues & PRs. So when it tries to fetch all the currently open issues, checking whether or not they should be get closed, it would have to perform quite a few requests pagination requests to get the information needed.

Knowing that we only care about issues & PRs already labelled stalled, we can provide the only-labels option to make sure we only fetch relevant issues.
