Bug
forge issue list (and forge issue show) panic when an issue's oid field is shorter than 8 characters.
Backtrace
thread 'main' panicked at crates/git-forge/src/exe.rs:243:66:
byte index 8 is out of bounds of `1`
Root cause
print_issue_list (and print_issue) fall back to &issue.oid[..8] when display_id is None:
let id = issue.display_id.as_deref().unwrap_or(&issue.oid[..8]);
This is an unchecked byte-slice index on a String. If oid is shorter than 8 bytes, Rust panics at runtime.
Fix
Replace the hard-coded [..8] with a safe alternative such as issue.oid.get(..8).unwrap_or(&issue.oid).
