Agent automation controls in GitHub Issues in public preview

Short summary

GitHub Issues now supports agent automations that label, type, assign, and close issues on your behalf, with a public-preview feature showing the reasoning behind each change and allowing review before actions are applied. This adds a human-in-the-loop checkpoint to AI-driven issue management. The feature is now in public preview.
