[None][infra] llmc: stop managing .github/ in standalone package generator

[lucaslie]

Summary

• The standalone package generator (examples/auto_deploy/llmc/create_standalone_package.py) no longer wipes and recreates .github/ in its output directory.
• Removes the examples/auto_deploy/llmc/.github_for_llmc/ template tree (issue templates, PR template).
• .github/ joins .git/ in the script's preserved set; the standalone repo (NVIDIA/llm-compiler) now owns its own .github/ contents.

Why

The downstream mirror needs to own its own .github/ so it can host repo-specific things — issue/PR templates, CODEOWNERS, and (the motivating case) GitHub Actions workflows. Wiping the directory on every regeneration forced a save/restore dance in any CI living in the mirror; letting the mirror own the directory removes the friction and matches the existing convention for .git/.

The current contents of .github_for_llmc/ (ISSUE_TEMPLATE/config.yml and PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md) are byte-identical to what's already checked into NVIDIA/llm-compiler from the last regeneration, so no content is lost — they simply transition from upstream-templated to downstream-owned.

Test plan

• Regenerate the standalone package against an existing NVIDIA/llm-compiler checkout that has a populated .github/; confirm .github/ is unchanged after the run.
• Regenerate into a fresh empty directory; confirm the run completes without errors and .github/ is simply not created.
• tests/unittest/auto_deploy/standalone/test_standalone_package.py still passes.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This pull request removes GitHub issue and pull request template configurations from the llmc mirror repository and updates the standalone package generation script to exclude .github directory handling, simplifying the repository setup.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
GitHub Template Removal examples/auto_deploy/llmc/.github_for_llmc/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/config.yml, examples/auto_deploy/llmc/.github_for_llmc/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md	Deleted issue and PR template files that previously controlled GitHub template behavior and provided contributor guidance for the mirror repository.
Package Script Update examples/auto_deploy/llmc/create_standalone_package.py	Removed .github directory source path constant, excluded .github from directory regeneration logic, and eliminated copy-tree logic that populated the output directory with .github templates.
