The PR title format's still wrong to me.
Plus now we have two source of information regarding how PRs should be written. I would prefer to have one source and link them.
I'm also not sure about how helpful this linting is. It can block a PR from being merged when there are legitimate reasons to break the pattern. It's very easy and fast for any maintainer to edit the title of a PR before merging it.
Curious to see what other maintainers have to say about this.

This is still wrong. Please reread the pull request template. The allowed prefix is not only query: and .*: (note that .* here isn't a regex it means "something that applies to all components).

@douglascamata Okay, means "query" or some single word that applies to all components right? If it is then can you suggest what could be best possible word?

The PR title, as the pull request template says, should start with the name of the Thanos component involved in the PR. We have a list of the components in the official docs (https://thanos.io/tip/components/).
You can also check the history of PRs. You might see some that affected one or more components at the same time. For sure some that affected all of them too.

@douglascamata Is this exactly correct?

You're missing the .* (string) prefix, which has to be escaped to not be confused with the meaning that .* has in regexes.

Yes, I see that for using .* in bash script as a regex we have to escape it like above. Is this right?
Added one CI to check that PR titles are properly formatted.
Changes
Added one .yaml file for CI.
