Issue Triage Workflow and Automation

Issue Triage Workflow and Automation

• One-line enhancement description (can be used as a release note): Improve issue triage in kubernetes/kubernetes by defining a workflow and automation for contributors
• Kubernetes Enhancement Proposal: https://git.k8s.io/enhancements/keps/sig-contributor-experience/1553-issue-triage
• Primary contact (assignee): @justaugustus
• Responsible SIGs: SIG Contributor Experience, PM, Release
• Enhancement target (which target equals to which milestone):
  • Stable release target (1.20)

(I'm not sure if this needs to be officially tracked by the @kubernetes/release-team, but given that the process improvement will affect issues in k/k and transitively, the team, it might make sense)
